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

backgroundCilostazol, a specific type-III phosphodiesterase inhibitor, is widely used for the treatment of ischemic symptoms of peripheral vascular disease. Recent studies have reported that the mechanism of cilostazol is related to the suppression of pro-inflammatory cytokine production and improvement of local microcirculation disturbances. The pathogenesis of stress-induced gastric mucosal lesions is characterized by the activation of inflammatory cells and the production of inflammatory cytokines. The effects of cilostazol on the development of gastric mucosal lesions have not been reported. In the present study, we examined the effect of a cilostazol on water-immersion stress-induced gastric mucosal lesions.

methodsRats were subjected to water-immersion stress with or without pretreatment with a single intraperitoneal injection of the selective type-III phosphodiesterase inhibitor, cilostazol. We measured the gastric mucosal lesion and the concentrations of myeloperoxidase (MPO), interleukin-1beta (IL-1beta), tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha), and cytokine-induced neutrophil chemoattractant-1 (GRO/CINC-1), as an index of neutrophil accumulation and pro-inflammatory cytokine production.

resultsCilostazol ameliorated the gastric mucosal injury induced by water-immersion stress (P<0.001). The gastric contents of MPO, TNF-alpha, IL-1beta, and CRO/CINC-1 were all increased after water-immersion stress and were reduced to almost normal levels by cilostazol.

conclusionsIn this study, we demonstrated that a selective type-III phosphodiesterase inhibitor, cilostazol, inhibited stress-induced gastric inflammation and damage via suppressing the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines. Cilostazol may be useful for preventing gastric mucosal lesions.
