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

Although the pathogenesis of ischemia reperfusion (IR) injury is based on complex mechanisms, free radicals play a central role. We evaluated membrane fluidity and lipid peroxidation during pancreas transplantation (PT) performed in 12 pigs (six donors and six recipients). Fluidity was measured by fluorescence spectroscopy, and malondialdehyde (MDA) and 4-hydroxyalkenals (4-HDA) concentrations were used as an index of lipid oxidation. Pancreatic tissues were collected as follows: (A) donor, immediately before vascular clamping; (B) graft, following perfusion lavage with University of Wisconsin preservation fluid; (C) graft, after 16 h of cold ischemia; and (D) recipient, 30 min vascular postreperfusion. Fluidity and MDA and 4-HDA concentrations were similar in cases A, B, and C. However, there was significant membrane rigidity and increased lipid peroxidation after reperfusion (D). These findings suggest that reperfusion exaggerates oxidative damage and may account for the rigidity in the membranes of allografts during PT.
