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

Intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR) is a risk factor for impairment of lung function in adolescence and adulthood. Inflammatory and proliferative processes linking IUGR and perturbed extracellular matrix (ECM) as an underlying mechanism have not been addressed so far. Therefore, in this study, we aimed to investigate the developmental regulation of inflammatory and profibrotic processes in the lung subsequent to IUGR. IUGR was induced in rats by isocaloric protein restriction during gestation. Lung function was assessed with direct plethysmography at postnatal day (P) 28 and P70. Lungs were obtained at P1, P42, and P70 for assessment of mRNA, protein expression, immunohistochemistry, and gelatinolytic activity. Both respiratory system resistance and compliance were impaired subsequent to IUGR at P28 and this impairment was even more pronounced at P70. In line with these results, the expression of ECM components and metabolizing enzymes was deregulated. The deposition of collagen was increased at P70. In addition, the expression of inflammatory cytokines and both the activity and the expression of target genes of Stat3 signaling were dynamically regulated, with unaltered or decreased expression at P1 and significantly increased expression art P70. Taken together, these data give evidence for an age-dependent impairment of lung function as a result of a developmentally regulated increase in inflammatory and profibrotic processes subsequent to IUGR.
