Edaravone improves the survival of rats subjected to hemorrhagic shock without resuscitation.
Article in Surgery today, 2008. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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.
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
Our aim in this study was to find out whether edaravone (3-methyl-1-phenyl-pyrazolin-5-one, MCI-186), a novel free radical scavenger, improved the survival rate in a rat hemorrhagic shock (HS) model. Fifty male Sprague-Dawley rats were divided randomly into an edaravone group and a saline group. Both groups were subjected to HS by inducing a mean arterial pressure of 30 mmHg for 60 min without resuscitation. The edaravone group was divided into four subgroups based on when edaravone was given: 0, 15, 30, or 60 min after HS. The saline group was given saline immediately after HS. We evaluated the 24-h survival rate in each group. The survival rate of the edaravone subgroup given edaravone immediately after HS was significantly better than that of the saline group. Edaravone improved the survival rate in a rat HS without resuscitation model. Edaravone was most effective when given immediately after HS.
