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

backgroundThe ability of Zn(II) and Cu(II) metal complexes of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) to inhibit acute arterial inflammation in vivo has been studied.

resultsWhen acute vascular inflammation was induced in normocholesterolemic New Zealand White rabbits by inserting a non-occlusive silastic collar around the common carotid artery, a single oral dose of Cu(II)-indomethacin (Cu(II)Indo, 3 mg/kg) administered by laparotomy achieved a 67 % (8.2 ± 1.7 vs. 2.7 ± 0.4 image units, p < 0.05) reduction in endothelial expression of vascular cell adhesion molecule-1 (VCAM-1) but did not inhibit endothelial intercellular adhesion molecule (ICAM-1) expression significantly. Treatment with Cu(II)-acemetacin (Cu(II)ACM, 3 mg/kg) led to a profound 88 % (8.2 ± 1.7 vs. 1.0 ± 0.5 image units, p < 0.01) reduction in endothelial VCAM-1 expression but did not inhibit ICAM-1 expression, while treatment with Zn(II)-acemetacin (Zn(II)ACM, 3 mg/kg) led to an 84 % (19.3 ± 1.0 vs. 3.1 ± 1.2 image units, p < 0.01) reduction in endothelial ICAM-1 expression and did not inhibit VCAM-1 expression. No adverse gastric, hepatic or renal effects were observed in treated animals.

conclusionThese findings provide the "proof of concept" that this novel class of drug, where there is complexation of NSAIDs with metal ions, has substantial anti-inflammatory effects in an animal model of acute vascular inflammation with the possibility of low rates of adverse effects.
