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

The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of Rho kinase inhibitor, Y-27632 on the intestinal apoptosis in endotoxemic infant rats. Wistar albino 15-17-day-old rat pups (n = 21) were randomized to three experimental groups: (1) controls; (2) endotoxemia (LPS); and (3) endotoxemia treated with Y-27632 (LPS + Y-27632). Endotoxemia was induced in rats by intraperitoneal (i.p) injection of lipopolysaccharide (Escherichia coli serotype 0111:B4; 10 mg/kg). Y-27632 was administered 5 mg/kg i.p at three times, just, 8 and 16 h after LPS injection. Twenty-four hours after LPS injection, intestinal apoptosis was assessed by hematoxylin and eosin staining, terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase-mediated dUTP nick end labeling assay and immunohistochemistry for active caspase-3. Endotoxemia induced extensive apoptotic injury in the intestinal tissues. The administration of Y-27632 to endotoxemic infant rats caused a marked decrease in the number of apoptotic cells in both intestinal epithelium and lamina propria. In conclusion, the inhibition of Rho kinase with Y-27632 diminished the intestinal apoptotic damage induced by endotoxemia in infant rats.
