Adenine nucleotide hydrolysis in patients with aseptic and bacterial meningitis.
Article in Neurochemical research, 2009. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
The meningitis is a disease with high mortality rates capable to cause neurologic sequelae. The adenosine (the final product of ATP hydrolysis by ectonucleotidases), have a recognized neuroprotective actions in the central nervous system (CNS) in pathological conditions. The aim of the present study was evaluate the adenine nucleotides hydrolysis for to verify one possible role of ATP, ADP and AMP hydrolysis in inflammatory process such as meningitis. The hydrolysis was verified in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) from human patients with aseptic and bacterial meningitis. Our results showed that the ATP hydrolysis was reduced 12.28% (P < 0.05) in bacterial meningitis and 22% (P < 0.05) in aseptic meningitis. ADP and AMP hydrolysis increased 79.13% (P < 0.05) and 26.37% (P < 0.05) in bacterial meningitis, respectively, and 57.39% (P < 0.05) and 42.64% (P < 0.05) in aseptic meningitis, respectively. This may be an important protective mechanism in order to increase adenosine production.
