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

This study examines the impact of glycine (Gly) preconditioning on ischemia reperfusion (IR)-induced pulmonary mitochondrial injury to research the previously, in pig lungs, demonstrated Gly-dependent amelioration of pulmonary IR injury. IR injury was induced in rat lungs by 30 min pulmonary hilum clamping followed by 60 min reperfusion time. Rats were subjected to controls, shams and two study groups (IR30/60, Gly-IR30/60) receiving 37.5 mg Gly i.v. or not before IR induction. The wet/dry-weight ratio, mitochondria viability (MV), membrane integrity (MI), respiratory chain complex (RCC) activities, mitochondrial membrane potential (ΔΨm) and cytochrome C (Cyt C) content were analysed. In IR30/60, RCC and MV were impaired; Cyt C loss and MI combined with matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9) activation and ΔΨm alteration were observed when compared with controls. In Gly-IR30/60, complex II function and mitochondrial viability were protected during IR, and MMP-9 activation combined with tissue-water content accumulation and ΔΨm alteration were ameliorated. Cyt C loss, mitochondrial membranes damage, tissue GSH oxidation or neutrophil sequestration was not extenuated in Gly-IR30/60. Gly ameliorates IR-associated mitochondrial dysfunction and decay of viability and normalizes ΔΨm but does not protect from Cyt C liberation and mitochondrial membrane damage. Our data suggest that the previously described effect of Gly preconditioning results at least partially from mitochondrial protection. A dose-finding study is necessary to improve results of Gly preconditioning.
