Erythropoietin Inhibits the Increase of Pulmonary Labile Zinc and the Expression of Inflammatory Mediators Following Subarachnoid Hemorrhage in Rats.

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.
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
backgroundAneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) is a common condition with relatively poor clinical outcome. Pulmonary complication after SAH is an important contributor to poor outcome. Previous studies have shown that labile zinc and inflammatory mediators participate in many pathophysiological processes. The present study investigated the effects of SAH on the levels of labile zinc and certain proinflammatory factors in rat lung and determined the effect of erythropoietin (EPO) on the pulmonary labile zinc and the inflammatory factor after SAH in rats.
methodsExperiment 1 aimed to investigate the time course of increase of pulmonary labile zinc, wet/dry weight ratio, and the expression of inflammatory mediators after SAH. In Experiment 2, we chose the maximum time point which lung injury was maximally severity and assessed the effect of EPO on regulation of the pulmonary labile zinc, inflammatory reaction, and wet/dry weight ratio after SAH.
resultsSAH caused a gradual increase of pulmonary labile zinc as demonstrated by fluorescence staining with Zinpyr-4. The levels of TNF-α and IL-8 and the lung wet/dry weight ratios were higher in the SAH groups compared to the control group and peaked on 3 days following SAH (p < 0.05). EPO significantly reduced the pulmonary labile zinc, the inflammatory mediators, and the lung wet/dry weight ratio compared with SAH group (p < 0.05).
conclusionsEPO can protect lung from SAH-induced injury by attenuating pulmonary inflammation and labile zinc accumulation in vivo.
