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

Neonatal hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy (HIE) is a clinically defined neurological condition after lack of oxygen and often associated with cardiac dysfunction in term infants. Therapeutic hypothermia (HT) after birth is neuroprotective in infants with HIE. However, it is not known whether HT is also cardioprotective. Four newborn pigs were used in the pilot study and a further 18 newborn pigs [randomly assigned to 72 h normothermia (NT) or 24 h HT followed by 48 h NT] were subjected to global HIE insults. Serum cTnI was measured before and post the HIE insult. Blood pressure, inotropic support, blood gases, and heart rate (HR) were recorded throughout. Cardiac pathology was assessed from histological sections. Cooling reduced serum cTnI levels significantly in HT pigs by 6 h (NT, 1.36 ± 0.67; HT, 0.34 ± 0.23 ng/mL; p = 0.0009). After rewarming, from 24 to 30 h postinsult, HR and cTnI increased in the HT group; from HR[24 h] = 117 ± 22 to HR[30 h] = 218 ± 32 beats/min (p = 0.0002) and from cTnI[24 h] = 0.23 ± 0.12 to cTnI[30 h] = 0.65 ± 0.53 ng/mL, (p = 0.05). There were fewer ischemic lesions on cardiac examination (37%) in the HT group compared with the NT group (70%). HT (24 h) pigs did not have the postinsult cTnI increase seen in NT-treated pigs. There was a trend that HT improved cardiac pathology in this 3-d survival model.
