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

objectiveA common consequence in patients with blunt trauma is a deterioration of the immune system. The specific impacts of a frequently occurring isolated soft tissue trauma on the immune response are described. However, the dimension of trauma needed to cause systemic effects has not been definitely elucidated.

methodsMice were traumatized on the lower leg. The extent of soft tissue trauma was quantified by determination of the wet/dry ratio, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and serum content of muscle proteins. Five minutes, 3, 24, 36, 48, and 72 h after trauma (a.t.) the ex vivo cytokine-expression of immune-competent cells were measured.

resultsTrauma resulted in an early edema that could be quantified by MRI and wet/dry ration. Release of muscle-specific proteins was detected 5 min a.t. The trauma did not cause significant changes of TNF-alpha response of isolated cells to endotoxin. IL6-response of splenocytes to endotoxin was slightly increased 72 h a.t., while IL6-response of peritoneal macrophages to endotoxin was decreased 36 h a.t.

conclusionWe describe a standardized trauma model for minor soft tissue injury in mice. Systemic effects on the immune system by traumatized lower leg were not found on the level of circulating cytokines or cellular responses to endotoxin.
