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

BACKGROUND AND

aimsThe location of mucosal damage and changes in mucin content in the rat small intestine following administration of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) have not been well elucidated.

methodsAfter subcutaneous administration of loxoprofen sodium (10-40 mg/kg), the small intestinal mucosa of male Wistar rats was evaluated macroscopically, histologically, and immunohistochemically by measuring the total mucin content and immunoreactivity for anti-mucin monoclonal antibody, HCM31, 1, 3, 7, and 14 days later. Changes in the number of enterobacteria invading the mucosa around the lesions were also determined.

resultsLoxoprofen sodium induced erosions and ulcers along the mesenteric margin of the distal jejunum. Early (≤6 h) mucosal lesions were small and round, located between the branches of the mesenteric arteries. In the jejunum, there was a transient increase in the total mucin content, and HCM31-positive mucin in the mucosa around the ulcers increased significantly on days 3 and 7, but in the ileum there were no marked changes and few ulcers. Bacterial translocation following loxoprofen sodium administration significantly increased, according to the site of the intestinal lesions.

conclusionsVascularly compromised sites along the jejunal mesenteric margin are vulnerable to NSAIDs-induced damage and show increased numbers of enterobacteria in the NSAIDs-treated mucosa. Increased sialomucin content in the mucus around the lesions may play an important role in the healing of NSAIDs-induced intestinal lesions.
