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

objectiveHepatorenal syndrome is one of the serious complications of cirrhosis and closely associated with the increasing intra-abdominal pressure (IAP). The study aims to explore the potential mechanism of intra-abdominal hypertension in the development of hepatorenal syndrome in mouse models.

methodsEighty male mice were randomly divided into model group (subcutaneous injection of carbon tetrachloride) and control group (subcutaneous injection of olive oil). After 12 weeks, parts of the mice were sacrificed and liver histopathology was detected. Then, albumin (30 g/L) and normal saline were separately injected into the peritoneal cavity of mice to induce the different IAP levels (0, 5, 10 and 20cmH2O). Blood urea nitrogen, serum creatinine and renal histopathology were examined 24 hours later.

resultsBlood urea nitrogen and serum creatinine levels were statistically significant high in the group of IAP= 10 and 20cmH2O as compared with the IAP= 0cmH2O. From results of renal histopathology, the constrictive renal tubular lumen and inflammatory infiltration in the interstitial were observed in groups of IAP= 5 and 10cmH2O. Besides, the formed casts and hyperemia in the renal interstitial could be detected in group of IAP= 20cmH2O. The cellular swelling and edema of renal tubular epithelial cells were found in model group simultaneously.

conclusionsOur study suggested that intra-abdominal hypertension was a significant pathological mechanism and a potential independent risk factor of hepatorenal syndrome.
