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

purposeIn humans, whole body heating and cooling are used to address physiological questions where core temperature is central to the investigated hypotheses. Core temperature can be measured in various locations throughout the human body. The measurement of intestinal temperature is increasingly used in laboratory settings as well as in athletics. However, it is unknown whether intestinal temperature accurately tracks pulmonary artery blood temperature, the gold standard, during thermal stimuli in resting humans, which is the investigated hypothesis.

methodsThis study compared pulmonary artery blood temperature (via thermistor in a pulmonary artery catheter) with intestinal temperature (telemetry pill) during whole body heat stress (n = 8), followed by whole body cooling in healthy humans (mean ± SD; age = 24 ± 3 yr, height = 183 ± 8 cm, mass = 78.1 ± 8.2 kg). Heat stress and subsequent cooling were performed by perfusing warm followed by cold water through a tube-lined suit worn by each subject.

resultsBefore heat stress, blood temperature (36.69°C ± 0.25°C) was less than intestinal temperature (36.96°C ± 0.21°C, P = 0.004). The increase in blood temperature after 20 min of heat stress was greater than the intestinal temperature (0.70 ± 0.24 vs 0.47 ± 0.18, P = 0.001). However, the increase in temperatures at the end of heat stress was similar between sites (blood Δ = 1.32°C ± 0.20°C vs intestinal Δ = 1.21°C ± 0.36°C, P = 0.30). Subsequent cooling decreased blood temperature (Δ = -1.03°C ± 0.34°C) to a greater extent than intestinal temperature (Δ = -0.41°C ± 0.30°C, P = 0.04).

conclusionsIn response to the applied thermal provocations, early temperature changes in the intestine are less than the temperature changes in pulmonary artery blood.
