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

backgroundWe recently discovered that Tubastatin-A, a histone deacetylase (HDAC6) inhibitor, can improve survival in a rodent model of hemorrhagic shock (HS), but mechanisms remain poorly defined. In this study, we investigated whether Tubastatin-A could protect intestinal tight junction (TJ) in HS.

methodsIn an in-vivo study with Wistar-Kyoto rats, the rats underwent HS (40% blood loss) followed by Tubastatin-A (70 mg/kg) treatment, without fluid resuscitation. The experimental groups were (1) sham (no hemorrhage, no treatment), (2) control (hemorrhage, without treatment), and (3) treatment (hemorrhage with Tubastatin-A administration). Six hours after hemorrhage, ileum was harvested. Whole cell lysate were analyzed for acetylated α-tubulin (Ac-tubulin), total tubulin, acetylated histone 3 at lysine 9 (Ac-H3K9), β-actin, claudin-3 and zonula occludens 1 (ZO-1) proteins by Western blot. Histological effects of Tubastatin-A on small bowel were examined. In an in-vitro study, human intestinal epithelial cells (Caco-2) were divided into three groups: (1) sham (normoxia), (2) control (anoxia, no treatment), and (3) treatment (anoxia, treatment with Tubastatin-A). After 12 hours in an anoxia chamber, the cells were examined for Ac-tubulin and Ac-H3K9, cellular viability, cytotoxicity, claudin-3 and ZO-1 protein expression, and transwell permeability study.

resultsTubastatin-A treatment significantly attenuated HS-induced decreases of Ac-tubulin, Ac-H3K9, ZO-1 and claudin-3 proteins in small bowel in-vivo (p < 0.05). In cultured Caco-2 cells, anoxia significantly decreased cellular viability (p < 0.001) and increased cytotoxicity (p < 0.001) compared to the sham group, while Tubastatin-A treatment offered significant protection (p < 0.0001). Moreover, expression of claudin-3 was markedly decreased in vitro compared to the sham group, whereas this was significantly attenuated by Tubastatin-A (p < 0.05). Finally, anoxia markedly increased the permeability of Caco-2 monolayer cells (p < 0.05), while Tubastatin-A significantly attenuated the alteration (p < 0.05).

conclusionInhibition of HDAC6 can induce Ac-tubulin and Ac-H3K9, promote cellular viability, and prevent the loss of intestinal tight junction proteins during HS and anoxia.
