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

Endothelin (ET)-1 is a potent vasoconstrictor peptide involved in the derangement of respiratory mechanics during endotoxic shock. We measured the kinetics of pulmonary mRNA expression of the key components of the ET system [i.e., ET-1, ET-converting enzyme (ECE), and ETA and ETB receptors] by quantitative real-time reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction in a swine model of endotoxic shock (0, 1, 2, 3, and 4 h of continuous LPS infusion at 40 microg/kg/hour; sham group, 4 hour saline infusion). A significant increase in mRNA expression levels was observed for ET-1 in LPS-treated piglets; the increase began as early as 1 hour. In contrast, no significant variations were observed for the ECE, ETA, or ETB genes. Small gene expression differences observed with respect to our previous results suggest a possible effect of the anesthesia or surgical protocol on ET system regulation.
