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

objectiveTo establish an improved method for stereotactic location of the supraoptic nucleus in rats.

methodsTwenty-four SD rats were randomly divided into experimental group (12 rats) and control group (12 rats) for oblique (20° to the left) stereotactic puncture (OSP group) and vertical stereotactic puncture (VSP group), respectively, both targeting the supraoptic nucleus (SON). The surgical data and postoperative (within 24) mortality of the rats were compared between the two groups.

resultsThe nucleus locating time was longer in OSP group than in VSP group (59.55∓3.64s vs 27.44∓2.18 s, P=0.000), and the postoperative mortality rate of the rats did not differ significantly between the groups (0 vs 44.4%, P=0.082). In OSP group, compared with VSP group, the procedure was associated with a lowered rupture rate of the superior sagittal sinus (11.1% vs 88.9%, P=0.003), a shortened hemostatic time after craniotomy (52.89∓24.05 s vs 157.445 ime a s, P=0.000) and after puncture (24.33 reas 45 s vs 133.89∓28.81 s, P=0.000), and also a shortened operation time (178.89 on tims vs 362.44 timees, P=0.000).

conclusionThe improved method for locating supraoptic nucleus in rats is convenient, stable and reproducible, and helps to avoid important blood vessels and specific nuclei according to the needs of different experiments and allows the operators to choose different surgical paths.
