Amifostine (Wr-2721) prevents indomethacin-induced gastric damage in rats: role of non-protein sulfhydryl groups and leukocyte adherence.
Article in Digestive diseases and sciences, 2007. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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
This study was designed to evaluate the protective effect of amifostine on indomethacin-induced gastric damage, and the role of increased gastric non-protein sulfhydryl groups (NP-SH) and decreased leukocyte adherence in this event. Wistar rats were pretreated with amifostine (10, 30, or 90 mg/kg intraperitoneal (i.p.) or subcutaneous (s.c.)) or saline. After 30 min, the rats received indomethacin (20 mg/kg, by gavage) and were then killed 3 hr later. Macroscopic and microscopic gastric damage, concentration of gastric NP-SH, prostaglandin E2 (PGE2), and mesenteric leukocyte adherence (intravital microscopy) were assessed. Amifostine prevented significantly (P < 0.05), macroscopic or microscopic, indomethacin-induced gastric damage, and increased gastric NP-SH, in a dose-dependent manner, with a maximal effect at a dose of 90 mg/kg. Subcutaneous, but not i.p., amifostine administration decreased (P < 0.05) the indomethacin-induced increase in leukocyte adherence. Indomethacin-induced PGE2 depletion was not reversed by amifostine. Amifostine has a protective effect against indomethacin-induced gastropathy by increasing gastric NP-SH and decreasing leukocyte adherence.
