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

In many liver disorders inflammation and apoptosis are important pathogenic components, finally leading to acute liver failure. Erythropoietin and its analogues are known to affect the interaction between apoptosis and inflammation in brain, kidney, and myocardium. The present study aimed to determine whether these pleiotropic actions also exert hepatoprotection in a model of acute liver injury. C57BL/6J mice were challenged with d-galactosamine (Gal) and Escherichia coli lipopolysaccharide (LPS) and studied 6 hours thereafter. Animals were either pretreated (24 hours before Gal-LPS exposure) or posttreated (30 minutes after Gal-LPS exposure) with darbepoetin-alpha (DPO, 10 mug/kg i.v.). Control mice received physiological saline. Administration of Gal-LPS caused systemic cytokine release and provoked marked hepatic damage, characterized by leukocyte recruitment and microvascular perfusion failure, caspase-3 activation, and hepatocellular apoptosis as well as enzyme release and necrotic cell death. DPO-pretreated and -posttreated mice showed diminished systemic cytokine concentrations, intrahepatic leukocyte accumulation, and hepatic perfusion failure. Hepatocellular apoptosis was significantly reduced by 50 to 75% after DPO pretreatment as well as posttreatment. In addition, treatment with DPO also significantly abrogated necrotic cell death and liver enzyme release. In conclusion, these observations may stimulate the evaluation of DPO as hepatoprotective therapy in patients with acute liver injury.
