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

objectiveAlthough 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) is a widely used as chemotherapy agent, severe mucositis develops in approximately 80% of patients. 5-FU-induced small intestinal mucositis can cause nausea and vomiting. The current study was designed to investigate peripheral alterations due to the 5-FU-induced mucositis of neuronal and non-neuronal 5-HT3 and NK1 receptor expression by immunohistochemical analysis.

methods5-FU was administered by i.p. injection to C57BL/6 mice. After 4 days, segments of the jejunum were removed. The specimens were analyzed by immunohistochemistry, real-time PCR, and enzyme immunoassay.

resultsThe numbers of 5-HT3 receptor immunopositive cells and nerve fibers in mucosa were increased by 5-FU treatment. The 5-HT3 receptor immunopositive cell bodies were found only in jejunal submucosa and myenteric plexus in the 5-FU-treated mice. The numbers of NK1 receptor cells in mucosa and immunopositive expression of NK1 receptors in deep muscular plexus were dramatically increased in 5-FU-treated mice. Real-time PCR demonstrated that 5-FU treatment significantly increased mRNA levels of 5-HT3A, 5-HT3B, and NK1 receptors. The amounts of 5-HT and substance P increased after 5-FU treatment. The 5-HT3 or NK1 receptor immunopositive cells colocalized with both 5-HT and substance P. Furthermore, 5-HT3 and NK1 receptors colocalized with CD11b.

conclusionsThe 5-HT3 and NK1 immunopositive macrophages and mucosal mast cells in lamina propria release 5-HT and substance P, which in turn activate their corresponding receptors on mucosal cells in autocrine and paracrine manners. It is assumed to result in the release of 5-HT and substance P in mucosa.
