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

aimIntestinal ischemia reperfusion (IR) causes tissue injury in two ways, starting a pro-inflammatory cascade and oxidative stress. The aim of this study was to investigate the possible protective effects of caffeic acid phenethyl ester (CAPE), which has antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties, against intestinal IR injury in rats. MATERIALS AND

methodsForty male Wistar-Albino rats were divided into five groups: Sham, IR, IR plus ethanol (vehicle), IR plus 10 mg/kg (IR + 10CAPE), and 30 mg/kg CAPE (IR + 30CAPE) at the 30-min ischemic period. Intestines were exteriorized and the superior mesenteric artery was occluded for 45-min ischemia and then the clamp was removed for 120-min reperfusion. After the experiment, the intestines were removed for biochemical and light microscopic examinations. Additionally, blood samples were taken for plasma TNF-alpha measurement.

resultsThe TBARS levels of the IR and IR + Ethanol groups were higher than the Sham group (P < 0.05). Both CAPE treatments decreased TBARS levels in comparison with the IR group (P < 0.05). In both CAPE-treated groups, while the superoxide dismutase (SOD) and glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px) activities were increased compared to all other groups, which was similarly the case for the CAT activity compared to the Sham and IR + Ethanol groups (P < 0.05). There were no significant differences between GSH levels of all study groups. The TNF-alpha levels of the IR and IR + Ethanol groups were non-significantly increased compared to the Sham group (P > 0.05). The TNF-alpha levels of 10 and 30 mg/kg CAPE groups were non-significantly decreased compared to the IR group (P > 0.05). The tissue MPO activities of the IR and IR + Ethanol groups were higher than the Sham group (P < 0.05). The MPO activities of the IR + 10CAPE and IR + 30CAPE groups were not significantly different from the Sham group (P > 0.05). There was necrosis of mucosa in the IR and IR + Ethanol groups in light microscopic evaluations. Those changes were significantly reversed by 30 mg/kg CAPE treatment.

conclusionThe intestinal IR injury may be reversed by anti-inflammatory and antioxidant actions of the CAPE. However, 30 mg/kg CAPE treatment may be more efficient in preventing intestinal IR injury in rats.
