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

purposeCongenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH) is one of the causes of respiratory failure in newborns due to lung hypoplasia and pulmonary abnormalities leading to pulmonary hypertension (PH). NAD(P)H oxidase (Nox) is a family of isoenzymes that generate reactive oxygen species (ROS) which can contribute to PH-induced vascular dysfunction. On the other hand, superoxide dismutase (SOD) 1-2 and catalase are the antioxidant enzymes that eliminate the excess of ROS in pulmonary vascular cells. Our aim is to examine whether PH-associated with CDH is due to a dysregulation of ROS production in lungs from CDH fetuses.

methodsPregnant rats received either 100 mg nitrofen or vehicle on E9.5. Fetuses were recovered on E21. (1) Nox activity, (2) H2O2 production and (3) mRNA levels of Nox1, Nox2, Nox4, SOD1, SOD2 and catalase were analyzed in fetal lungs.

resultsNox activity and Nox1 and Nox2 mRNA levels were increased in the lungs of fetuses with CDH. However, there were no changes in H2O2 production and Nox4 mRNA levels. SOD1, SOD2 and catalase were decreased.

conclusionsThe raised oxidative stress due to increase in ROS generation by Nox isoenzymes and dysfunction of antioxidant enzymes seems to be a potential mechanism responsible on PH-associated with CDH.
