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

1. The thiazolidinedione ring present in drugs available for type II diabetes can contribute to hepatic injury. Another thiazolidinedione ring-containing compound, 3-(3,5-dichlorophenyl)-2,4-thiazoli-dinedione (DCPT), produces liver damage in rats. Accordingly, the effects of gender, dose, and time on DCPT hepatotoxicity were therefore evaluated. 2. Male rats were more sensitive to DCPT (0.4-1.0 mmol kg(-1) by intraperitoneal administration) as shown by increased serum alanine aminotransferase levels and altered hepatic morphology 24 h post-dosing. Effects in both genders were dose dependent. In males, DCPT (0.6 mmol kg(-1)) produced elevations in alanine aminotransferases and changes in liver sections 3 h after dosing that progressively worsened up to 12 h. DCPT-induced renal effects were mild. 3. It is concluded that male rats are more susceptible to DCPT hepatotoxicity and that damage occurs rapidly. DCPT primarily affects the liver and can be a useful compound to investigate the role of the thiazolidinedione ring in hepatic injury. However, the gender dependency and rapid onset of DCPT hepatotoxicity require further investigation.
