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

Acute myocardial infarction (AMI) is a highly dynamic event, which is associated with increasing production of reactive oxygen species (ROS). The imbalance between ROS production and antioxidant defenses leads to the condition known as oxidative stress. The most widely recognized effect of increasing oxidative stress is the oxidation and damage of macromolecules, membranes, proteins, and DNA. Therefore, in this study we sought to evaluate oxidative stress and antioxidant defenses in patients with AMI. Lipid peroxidation, protein carbonyl levels, and enzymatic and nonenzymatic antioxidants were assessed in samples obtained from 40 AMI patients and 40 control patients. AMI was characterized by clinical, electrocardiographic, and laboratory criteria. The control group was divided into two groups of 20 patients: a control group with healthy patients and a risk group. Our results demonstrated an increase in substances reactive to thiobarbituric acid (TBARS) and carbonyl protein levels in the AMI and risk groups. In addition, a positive correlation was found between TBARS, carbonyl protein levels, and troponin I in AMI patients. Surprisingly, for the enzymatic antioxidant defenses, catalase and superoxide dismutase, we observed an increase in these parameters in the AMI and risk groups when compared with healthy patients. However, a decrease in nonenzymatic antioxidants such as vitamin C and vitamin E was observed in AMI patients when compared with the healthy group and the risk group. The increase in oxidative stress was probably a result of the elevation in ROS production due to the ischemic/reperfusion event that occurs in AMI, in addition to the decrease of nonenzymatic antioxidant defenses.
