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

Magnesium has neuroprotective and antivasospastic properties in the presence of subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). The present study investigated the effect of intracisternal administration of magnesium on cerebral vasospasm in the experimental SAH rat model. The rat double-SAH model (0.2 mL autologous blood injected twice into the cisterna magna) was used. Normal saline (SAH group, N=8) or 10 mmol/L magnesium sulfate in normal saline (SAH + MG group, N=8) was infused into the cisterna magna at 1.5 microL/min for 30 min on day 5. Control rats without SAH also received intracisternal infusion of normal saline (control group, N=6). Local cerebral blood flow (CBF) at 24 locations and the weighted average were quantitatively measured by the autoradiographic technique using [(14)C]iodoantipyrine during infusion. The weighted average CBF was significantly reduced (P<0.01, Student's t-test) in the SAH group (0.78+/-0.16 mL g(-1) min(-1)) compared to the control group (1.0+/-0.15 mL g(-1) min(-1)) and was significantly improved (P<0.01, Student's t-test) in the SAH + MG group (0.98+/-0.18 mL g(-1) min(-1)). Local CBF was significantly reduced (P<0.05, unpaired t test) in 16 locations in the SAH group and significantly improved (P < 0.05, unpaired t test) in 12 locations in the SAH + MG group. Intracisternal infusion of magnesium sulfate significantly improved reduced CBF induced by experimental SAH in the rat.
