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

backgroundCurrently there is no an appropriate model to study intestinal mucosal atrophy in vivo that preserves the nutritional status of the organism. MATERIALS AND

methodsWe created a defunctionalized segment of jejunum via a dead-end Roux-en-Y anastomosis in rats. We compared tissue morphometric parameters in the intestinal mucosa of the defunctionalized bowel with that of the mucosa proximal and distal to the anastomosis. We further measured extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) activation within the mucosa as well as sucrase-isomaltase and dipeptidyl peptidase-4 levels as markers of intestinal mucosal differentiation by Western blotting of mucosal scrapings.

resultsThree days after anastomosis, the defunctionalized bowel exhibited decreased diameter and thickness of both the mucosa and the fibromuscular layer compared with adjacent bowel in continuity for luminal nutrient flow or with bowel from control animals. Sucrase-isomaltase and dipeptidyl peptidase-4 levels also were decreased. Furthermore, mucosal ERK activation, assessed as the ratio of phosphorylated to total ERK, also was reduced. Animal weights did not differ between bypassed and control animals.

conclusionsDeprivation of nutrient flow in a segment of bowel by defunctionalizing Roux-en-anastomosis produces mucosal atrophy as indicated by altered histology, differentiation marker expression, and ERK signaling, in animals that are otherwise able to maintain enteral nutrition.
