Serum 8-hydroxy-2-deoxyguanosine as a marker of DNA oxidative damage in horses with recurrent airway obstruction.
Article in Acta veterinaria Scandinavica, 2016. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 papers.
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
backgroundIt has been reported that equine recurrent airway obstruction (RAO) is a state of oxidative stress. Oxidant-antioxidant imbalance is known to increase the conversion of deoxyguanosine to 8-hydroxy-2-deoxyguanosine (8-OHdG) in DNA. 8-OHdG can easily be measured using ELISA tests in serum or urine samples. In this study, we analysed serum 8-OHdG levels in horses with recurrent airway obstruction and in healthy controls.
resultsThe study material consisted of seven healthy horses and seven horses with symptomatic RAO. All horses were exposed to moldy hay and straw for 48 h to induce clinical exacerbation of RAO. The serum 8-OHdG levels were determined using the ELISA Highly Sensitive 8-OHdG kit. The difference between the levels of 8-OHdG in healthy and RAO-affected horses was significant. The median level of 8-OHdG was 0.044 ng/ml in the healthy controls versus 0.498 ng/ml in RAO horses (P = 0.0021).
conclusionsThe results of the study strongly suggest that DNA damage coexists in the course of equine RAO. We therefore propose that future research should aim at the development of new drugs that target pro-inflammatory molecules, since DNA damage appears to be the result of chronic inflammation.
