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

backgroundIrritable bowel syndrome (IBS) is associated with visceral hyperalgesia and frequently occurs after a transient gastrointestinal infection. Only a proportion of patients with acute gastroenteritis develop post-infectious IBS suggesting differences in host response to inflammatory stimuli. We aimed to investigate this concept by characterizing visceral sensitivity in two rat strains, following a chemically induced colitis.

methodsColorectal instillation of trinitrobenzenesulfonic acid (TNBS) in aqueous ethanol was used to induce a transient colitis in Lewis and F344 rats. The colitis was characterized semiquantitatively by histology, as well as by quantitative methods using (99m)Tc-leukocytes (radioactive organ assay) and plasma IL-2 and IL-6 levels. Visceromotor response to colorectal distensions was assessed after 2 h and, 5, 14, and 28 days.

resultsThe colitis peaked on day 5 and dissipated to no visible mucosal damage on day 14. Cytokines were significantly increased in TNBS-treated rats at 2 h and on day 5. On day 14 cytokines were still significantly enhanced in Lewis but not Fisher rats. Both strains had a highly inflamed to non-inflamed tissue ratio at 3 h after TNBS instillation with increased uptake in Lewis compared to F344 rats. No (99m)Tc-tin-colloid-leukocytes were detected in colon samples on day 28. Visceromotor response was significantly elevated in both strains during the acute colitis (day 5), whereas only Lewis rats developed a post-inflammatory (day 28) visceral hyperalgesia.

conclusionGenetically determined host factors account for prolonged immune activation in response to a standardized inflammatory stimulus and are linked to susceptibility for a post-inflammatory visceral hyperalgesia.
