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

Stress may induce development of inflammation in animal models of colitis. The effects of restraint stress on oxidative damage and on antioxidants in the normal colonic mucosa were studied. The effect of stress on the severity of indicators of inflammation, as well as the importance of mucosal substance P (SP) as a mediator of this effect were investigated in the TNBS-colitis model. Restraint stress significantly increased malondialdehyde levels and reduced levels of low-molecular-weight-antioxidants in the normal colon. ATP and the mucosal "energy charge" decreased substantially with chronic stress. Chronic stress worsened the extent of inflammation in 2,4,6-trinitrobenzene sulfonic acid (TNBS)-induced colitis. Mucosal SP content was not affected by exposure to chronic stress but increased after induction of colitis. The increase was greater when colitis was induced after exposure to stress. We conclude that chronic restraint stress causes oxidative damage to the normal colon and aggravates intestinal inflammation induced by TNBS. This effect may be mediated by SP.
