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

aimTo investigate the effects of carbon dioxide (CO(2)) and helium insufflation administered at different pressures on the growth and apoptosis of cultured human gastric cancer cells.

methodsThe gastric cancer cells MKN-45 were exposed to a CO(2) and helium environment maintained at different pressures (0, 5, 10 and 15 mmHg). The cells were exposed to simulated pneumoperitoneum environment for 4 h, and pH of the culture media was measured after it was moved to normal conditions for 0, 2, 4, 6 and 8 h. Proliferation viability of MKN-45 was examined by 3-[4,5Dimethylthiazol-2-yl],5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide or triazolyl blue (MTT) assay after it was moved to normal conditions. Apoptotic ratio was measured by Annexin V-FITC/PI double labelled staining.

resultsThe pH of media was acid and recovered to normal after 4 h in the CO(2) group while it was basic in the helium group. There was no difference between CO(2) groups (under 10 mmHg ) and control group (P > 0.05) in the proliferative viability of the cells. The cultured cells exposed to 15 mmHg CO(2) environment grew more slowly than control group from 4 to 7 d (P < 0.01 ) while there was no difference from 1 to 3 d (P > 0.05). The proliferative viability in helium group was not obviously different from the control group (P > 0.05). The apoptotic ratio of the cultured cells was markedly higher than that of the control group (P < 0.01) at 10 and 15 mmHg CO(2) insufflation pressure. In helium group, the apoptotic ratio was not obviously different from the control group (P > 0.05).

conclusionThere is no obvious effect in the proliferation and apoptosis of MKN-45 cells under 10 mmHg CO(2) insufflation pressure and helium in any pressure. Fifteen mmHg CO(2) insufflation pressure can inhibit the proliferation of the cells and improve apoptosis.
