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

objectiveTo explore the ultrasound-guided gene transfection as well as the role of heat shock protein 72 (HSP72) siRNA combined with ultrasound micro-bubble contrast agents on rat hepatic ischemia-reperfusion injury.

methods72 SD rats were divided into non-surgery group (group N), sham-operation group (group P) and liver ischemia-reperfusion groups (I/R). In each group, rats were further divided into 4 subgroups according to the different intravenous treatment: 220 ul saline solution (group A); 20 ul HSP72 siRNA plasmid vector + 200 ul saline solution (group B); 20 ul HSP72 siRNA plasmid vector + 200 ul ultrasound microbubble contrast agent (group C); 20 ul HSP72 siRNA plasmid vector + 200 ul ultrasound microbubble contrast agent + ultrasonic irradiation target region with MI1.0 (group D).

resultsCertain degree hepatic tissue injury was observed in rats of group I/R A, B and C. The expressions of liver tissue HSP72 mRNA and HSP72 protein and the concentrations of peripheral blood HSP72, ALT and TNF-α were significantly increased at each I/R subgroup (vs group N and group P, P < 0.01). Among them, the plasma concentrations of ALT, HSP72, and TNF-α and the liver tissue expressions of HSP72 mRNA and HSP72 protein at group A were significantly higher than groups B, C and D (P < 0.01). And group D was significantly lower than that of group A, B and C (P < 0.01).

conclusionThe liver tissue expressions of HSP72 mRNA and HSP72 protein and the liver injury degree of ischemia-perfusion were significantly reduced after the HSP72 siRNA was combined with micro-bubble and radiated directionally by ultrasound.
