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

Despite the general understanding that ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) promotes oxidant stress, specific contributions of oxidant stress or damage to myocardial I/R injury remain poorly defined. Moreover, whether endogenous 'cardioprotectants' such as adenosine act via limiting this oxidant injury is unclear. Herein we characterized effects of 20 min ischemia and 45 min reperfusion on cardiovascular function, oxidative stress and damage in isolated perfused mouse hearts (with glucose or pyruvate as substrate), and examined whether 10 microM adenosine modified these processes. In glucose-perfused hearts post-ischemic contractile function was markedly impaired (< 50% of pre-ischemia), cell damage assessed by lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) release was increased (12 +/- 2 IU/g vs. 0.2 +/- 0.1 IU/g in normoxic hearts), endothelial-dependent dilation in response to ADP was impaired while endothelial-independent dilation in response to nitroprusside was unaltered. Myocardial oxidative stress increased significantly, based on decreased glutathione redox status ([GSSG]/[GSG + GSSH] = 7.8 +/- 0.3% vs. 1.3 +/- 0.1% in normoxic hearts). Tissue cholesterol, native cholesteryl esters (CE) and the lipid-soluble antioxidant alpha-tocopherol (alpha-TOH, the most biologically active form of vitamin E) were unaffected by I/R, whereas markers of primary lipid peroxidation (CE-derived lipid hydroperoxides and hydroxides; CE-O(O)H) increased significantly (14 +/- 2 vs. 2 +/- 1 pmol/mg in normoxic hearts). Myocardial alpha -tocopherylquinone (alpha-TQ; an oxidation product of alpha -TOH) also increased (10.3 +/- 1.0 vs. 1.7 +/- 0.2 pmol/mg in normoxic hearts). Adenosine treatment improved functional recovery and vascular function, and limited LDH efflux. These effects were associated with an anti-oxidant effect of adenosine, as judged by inhibition of I/R-mediated changes in glutathione redox status (by 60%), alpha-TQ (80%) and CE-O(O)H (100%). Provision of 10 mM pyruvate as sole substrate (to by-pass glycolysis) modestly reduced I/R injury and changes in glutathione redox status and alpha-TQ, but not CE-O(O)H. Adenosine exerted further protection and anti-oxidant actions in these hearts. Functional recoveries and LDH efflux correlated inversely with oxidative stress and alpha -TQ (but not CE-O(O)H) levels. Collectively, our data reveal selective oxidative events in post-ischemic murine hearts, which are effectively limited by adenosine (independent of substrate). Correlation of post-ischemic cardiovascular outcomes with specific oxidative events (glutathione redox state, alpha-TQ) supports an important anti-oxidant component to adenosinergic protection.
