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

objectiveThe purpose of this study was to investigate if L(+)-lactate (lactate) can be used as a marker of progression of joint inflammation in comparison with a reference marker, prostaglandin E2 (PGE(2)), and to analyse implications for drug treatments. MATERIALS AND

methodsThe assessment of the inflammation time course and the treatment efficacy studies were performed on two occasions. At specific time points, synovial fluid was extracted from Sprague-Dawley rats (n = 87) challenged with either carrageenan (Cg) or Freund's complete adjuvant (FCA) or from six non-inflamed rats. Naproxen (7.5 or 30 micromol/kg) or rofecoxib (30 micromol/kg) was administered per os 2 h post Cg or at 48 h post FCA. Levels of PGE(2) and lactate were assessed either by immuno-assay or by colorimetric assay.

resultsIncreased levels of both markers were detected following Cg or FCA injection. Pharmacological treatments resulted in lower concentrations of PGE(2) whereas levels of lactate remained unaffected compared to the vehicle-treated group.

conclusionOur results suggest that lactate may be useful as an additional biomarker of inflammatory processes, especially for monitoring the non-cox-inhibitor sensitive cascade.
