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

backgroundA bacterial cocaine esterase (CocE) produces robust protection and reversal of cocaine toxicity. The aim of this study was to investigate how effectiveness of CocE was changed following its repeated administration together with cocaine.

methodsCocaine toxicity was quantified by measuring the occurrence of convulsions and lethality in mice. Immunologic responses of CocE were determined using ELISA. In the protection experiment, i.v. CocE 0.3mg was given 1min before a lethal dose of i.p. cocaine 180mg/kg. In the rescue experiment, i.v. CocE 0.3mg was given 1min after the occurrence of convulsions elicited by i.p. cocaine 100mg/kg. In both treatment paradigms, four trials were conducted in the same animals with a 2-week interval.

resultsCocE retained its effectiveness to protect or rescue mice during the first two trials and these mice did not show an immune response. In contrast, CocE's effectiveness was gradually reduced in the last two trials, accompanied by 10- and 100-fold increases in anti-CocE antibody titers. Nevertheless, effectiveness of CocE could be partially recovered by increasing the dose of CocE. In addition, escalating the dose of CocE from the minimum effective dose for repeated administration could also retain CocE's effectiveness longer and slow the production of anti-CocE antibodies.

conclusionsThese results indicate that CocE is a weak antigen and it can maintain its protective and rescuing ability initially against cocaine-induced toxicity. Decreased effectiveness of CocE following repeated use can be partially improved by adjusting the dose and frequency of CocE treatment.
