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

aimTo investigate the effects of exogenous antioxidant copper zinc superoxide dismutase (Cu/Zn SOD) on oxidative stress in the experimental model of diabetes mellitus (DM).

methodsTwenty eight male Wistar rats divided in four groups were used: control (CO), controls treated with SOD (CO + SOD), diabetics (DM), and diabetics treated with SOD (DM + SOD). SOD (orgotein, 13 mg/Kg body weight was administered. DM was induced by a single streptozotocin injection (i.p., 70 mg/kg), and 60 days later, we evaluated liver oxidative stress.

resultsLiver lipoperoxidation was increased in the DM group and significantly decreased in the DM + SOD group. Nitrite and nitrate measures were reduced in the DM and increased in the DM + SOD group, while iNOS expression in the DM group was 32% greater than in the CO and 53% greater in the DM + SOD group than in the DM group (P < .01). P65 expression was 37% higher in the DM (P < .05), and there was no significant difference between the DM and DM + SOD groups.

conclusionSOD treatment reduced liver oxidative stress in diabetic animals, even though it did not change NFκB. SOD also increased NO, probably by the increased dismutation of the superoxide radical. The iNOS expression increase, which became even more evident after SOD administration.
