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

In the present study, we investigate the effect of lung injury on parameters of oxidative/nitrative stress [reactive oxygen species production, nitrite levels, thiobarbituric acid-reactive substances (TBARS), carbonyl content, sulfhydryl content, activities of antioxidant enzymes (superoxide dismutase, catalase, and glutathione peroxidase), total radical-trapping antioxidant potential, glutathione content, and glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase], as well as on inflammation mediators [immunocontent of nuclear factor-kappaB (NF-κB) total (p65), NF-κB phosphorylated (pp65) subunit (cytosolic and nuclear), TNF-α, IL-1β, IL-6, and IL-10] in the cerebral cortex. Cytokine levels in serum were also evaluated. Adult Wistar rats were submitted to lung injury induced by intratracheal instillation of lipopolysaccharide in a dose of 100 μg/100 g body weight. Sham group (control) received isotonic saline instillation. Twelve hours after the injury, rats were decapitated and blood samples were collected and the cerebral cortex dissected out. Results showed an increase in reactive oxygen species production, TBARS, and nitrite and carbonyl levels in the cerebral cortex of rats submitted to lung injury. Antioxidant enzymatic defenses were altered, superoxide dismutase and glutathione peroxidase activities decreased, and catalase activity increased. Non-enzymatic antioxidant capacity, glutathione content, and glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase were decreased. Inflammatory parameters were also altered in the cerebral cortex of rats subjected to lung injury; it was observed an increase in the immunocontent of NF-κB/p65 (nuclear fraction) and NF-κB/pp65 (cytosolic and nuclear faction), as well as an increase in TNF-α, IL-1β, IL-6, and IL-10 levels. The levels of IL-10 also increased in the serum. Our findings show that the lung injury alters oxidative/nitrative status and induces inflammation in the cerebral cortex of rats, which might be associated with cognitive impairments present in patients with lung injury.
