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

objectiveTo evaluate the effects of hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) therapy on the coagulation cascade using an experimental model of multiple organ failure syndrome (MOFS).

designMOFS was induced by zymosan (500mg/kg i.p.) in rats. HBO therapy (2ATA) was administered in a cylindrical steel chamber 4 and 11h after zymosan administration. In a separate set of experiments animals were monitored for 72h, and systemic toxicity was scored.

interventionEighteen hours after zymosan administration, rats were killed and blood samples were used for analysis of hemocoagulative parameters, hemodynamics, and arterial blood gas. MAIN

resultsZymosan administration caused MOFS by affecting the coagulation cascade, as shown by a significant increase in plasma levels of fibrinogen, tissue plasminogen activator, inhibitor of tissue plasminogen activator of type 1, and plasma levels of fibrin degradation products vs. control rats. Zymosan-induced MOFS was also characterized by a significant increase in von Willebrand antigen plasma levels vs. controls. Moreover, zymosan administration induced a significant fall in mean arterial blood pressure and alteration in blood gas values. HBO therapy significantly reduced the derangements of coagulation cascade, the fall in mean blood pressure and alteration in blood gas induced by zymosan administration.

conclusionsThe hypercoagulability induced by zymosan could be responsible for organ failure and death. Our data demonstrate that HBO therapy significantly prevents the alteration in the coagulation cascade and arterial blood gas in an experimental model of MOFS.
