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

Severe sepsis is known to result in various neurological long-term deficits in human. Recently, a link between severe, lethal sepsis and significant hearing loss with correlating histomorphological inner ear changes in mice (C57BL/6) was observed. However, if similar observations can be made in severe, non-lethal sepsis in mice is unclear. This study evaluates mice after severe, non-lethal sepsis for analogue functional and histomorphological alterations of the inner ear.A total of 63 C57BL/6 mice were included in the study. All underwent an initial hearing test with auditory brainstem response on day 1. In 35 mice sepsis was induced by cecal ligation and puncture (CLP), in 15 sham surgery was performed and 13 served as healthy control. A second hearing test was performed on day 7. All mice were sacrificed afterwards for further histomorphological evaluation of the inner ears. Immunohistochemical analysis with apoptotic markers Cleaved-caspase 3, BAX and BCL-2 were performed to identify structural inner ear damage.Of all CLP mice, 21/35 (60.0%) died due to the induced sepsis. Of the surviving CLP mice, 14/35 (40.0%), post-treatment hearing thresholds differed significantly from the sham and control mice (
