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

This study aims to investigate the protective effects and mechanism of recombinant adenovirus Ad.VSG-hBCL-2 towards ischemia/reperfusion injury in rat liver graft. Recombinant adenovirus Ad.VSG-hBCL-2 was injected into the donor rat liver of the experiment group through the portal vein, the laparotomy was performed for liver 36 h later, and the liver was save in lactated Ringer's solution at 4°C for 4 h, "two-cuff method" was used to perform the orthotopic liver transplantation. The bile secretion situations of two groups were observed 6 h after the portal vein reflow; the recipient rats were killed to detect the plasma levels of AST, ALT and LDH. And the expressions of Bcl-2 and TNF-α in liver tissue, and TUNEL assay was used to detect the apoptosis of liver tissue cells, electron microscopy was used to observe the changes of subcellular structures of liver tissue. 6 h after the surgery, the immunohistochemistry and Western Blot test showed that the Bcl-2 expression in the liver of the experiment group significantly increased than the control group, the bile secretion increased, the levels of AST, ALT and LDH were significantly lower, and the TNF-α expression increased significantly. The changes of cellular morphology of the experiment group were milder, and the apoptotic index was significantly lower than the control group. The portal vein-transfected recombinant adenovirus Ad.VSG-hBCL-2 could be effectively expressed in rat liver, and the high expressed Bcl-2 could reduce the ischemia/reperfusion injury in the transplanted liver.
