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

BACKGROUND AND

aimsCytoglobin (Cygb) is the newest globin family and is upregulated during hypoxia to maintain the oxygen status. Herein, we investigated Cygb expression in both acute and chronic gastric mucosal injuries.

methodsAcute gastric mucosal injuries in rats were produced by oral administration of indomethacin, followed by sacrifice at 1, 3, 6, 24, and 48 h. Gastric ulcer was produced by acetic acid, followed by sacrifice on days 3, 7, 11, 18, and 25. Each protein expression of Cygb and hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF)-1α was evaluated by western blotting. We measured vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) mRNA by RT-PCR and examined localization of Cygb by immunofluorescence.

resultsIn indomethacin-induced injury, Cygb protein was significantly increased at 24 h. In ulcerated tissues, HIF-1α protein was significantly increased on days 7 and 11 (1.83 ± 0.11 and 2.12 ± 0.19 folds, respectively, p < 0.05 and 0.01), which corresponded to the early healing phase. In contrast, Cygb protein was significantly increased on days 11 and 18 (1.87 ± 0.13 and 1.60 ± 0.06 folds, respectively, p < 0.05), which demonstrated late phase. Though these proteins peaked on day 11, VEGF mRNA was gradually increased from day 11 to 18. Cygb was expressed in fibroblasts and myofibroblasts in both acute and chronic models. Cygb and HIF-1α were abundantly colocalized at the ulcer margin before angiogenesis development. However, faint localization was observed with angiogenesis.

conclusionsCygb may be involved in the healing process of gastric mucosal injuries in the late phase without angiogenesis.
