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

We have reported that airway nociceptors [C fibre receptors (CFRs) and high-threshold Aδ fibre receptors (HTARs)] are activated during oleic acid (OA)-induced acute lung injury. In the present studies, we tested the hypothesis that this nociceptor activation is mediated by arachidonic acid products. In anaesthetized, open-chest, mechanically ventilated rabbits, we examined the response of the nociceptors to intravenous injection of OA before and after blocking the cyclo-oxygenase pathways with indomethacin. Pretreatment with indomethacin (20 mg kg(-1)) decreased the background activities of both CFRs (from 0.48 ± 0.12 to 0.25 ± 0.08 impulses/s, n = 7, P < 0.05) and HTARs (from 0.54 ± 0.14 to 0.23 ± 0.08 impulses/s, n = 10, P < 0.01). It also blocked the response of the nociceptors to OA. Likewise, pretreatment with thromboxane synthase inhibitor (ketoconazole) also blocked the nociceptor response to OA. In addition, local microinjection or intravenous injection of a thromboxane mimetic stimulated CFRs and HTARs. The present results clearly indicate that arachidonic acid metabolites mediate airway nociceptor activation during OA-induced acute lung injury and suggest that thromboxane may be a key mediator.
