1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

aimTo investigate the role of Kupffer cells (KCs) in acute hemorrhagic necrotizing pancreatitis-associated lung injury (AHNP-LI).

methodsForty-two rats were allocated to four groups [sham operation, AHNP model, gadolinium chloride (GdCl3) pretreatment, GdCl3 control]. In GdCl3 pretreatment group, GdCl3 was administered by caudal vein injection 24 h before the AHNP model induction. Blood from the iliac artery, alveolar macrophages and tissues from the pancreas and lung, were collected in six animals per group 3 and 6 h after acute pancreatitis induction. TNF-alpha, IL-1 of serum, myeloperoxidase (MPO) of lung tissue, NF-kappaB activation of alveolar macrophages were detected. Serum AST and ALT in sham operation group and GdCl3 control group were tested. In addition, histopathological changes of the pancreas and lung were observed under light microscope.

resultsMPO of lung tissue and TNF-alpha, IL-1 levels of serum were all reduced significantly in GdCl3 pretreatment group compared to those in AHNP group (P<0.01). NF-kappaB activation of alveolar macrophages was also attenuated significantly in GdCl3 pretreatment group compared to that in AHNP group (P<0.01). The pathological injury of the lung was ameliorated obviously in GdCl3 pretreatment group compared to that in AHNP group. Nevertheless, the serum amylase level did not reduce and injury of the pancreas was not prevented in GdCl3 pretreatment group.

conclusionPulmonary injury induced by AHNP is mediated by KC activation and AHNP-LI can be significantly ameliorated by pretreatment with GdCl3 and KCs play a vital role in AHNP-LI.
