Role of the cyclooxygenase pathway in the protection against postischemic stunning in conscious sheep.

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.
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
objectiveThere are controversial reports in conscious animals regarding the role of cyclooxygenase-2 in late preconditioning (LP). This study analyzed the effect of COX-2 involvement in non-preconditioned hearts (NP) and in mediation of LP protection against stunning in conscious sheep submitted to a prolonged reversible ischemia.
methodsSix groups were considered: NP: 12 min ischemia and 120 min reperfusion; LP consisting of six periods of 5 min-ischemia-5 min reperfusion 24 h before the 12 min ischemia; NP and LP with either the non-selective COX-1 and COX-2 inhibitor, aspirin (20 mg/kg), or the specific COX-2 inhibitor, celecoxib (3 mg/kg) before the 12 min ischemic period.
resultsMean postischemic wall thickening fraction (as % of preischemic values) improved from 49.6 +/- 4.0% in NP to 72.5 +/- 3.5% in LP (p < 0.01) and a similar protection was obtained with aspirin and celecoxib in NP hearts (p < 0.01). Neither aspirin nor celecoxib administration prior to the prolonged ischemia on day 2 abrogated LP improvement of postischemic dysfunction. Moreover, LP with aspirin improved the protective response (80.7 +/- 2.6%) over that obtained with aspirin in NP hearts (66.6 +/- 4.7%, p < 0.05). This effect was not obtained with celecoxib.
conclusionsAspirin and celecoxib showed that COX-2 has a detrimental effect on mechanical cardioprotection in NP hearts of conscious sheep submitted to a prolonged reversible ischemia, and does not seem to participate as mediator of LP. Aspirin revealed a similar COX-1 deleterious action, since only when both COX-1 and COX-2 were inhibited, LP was put in evidence adding functional improvement over that obtained in NP hearts treated with aspirin.
