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 purpose of this study was to verify the effect of whole-body cryotherapy (WBC) in rats on their antioxidant systems, lipid peroxidation products, and their total oxidative status at different exposure times and temperatures.

methodsAntioxidants in serum, plasma, liver, and erythrocytes were evaluated in two study groups following 1 min of exposure to -60°C and -90°C, for 5 and 10 consecutive days.

resultsWBC increased the activity of superoxide dismutase, catalase in the group subjected to 5 and 10 days exposure, -60°C. The glutathione S-transferase activity increased in the groups subjected to 10 days WBC sessions. Total antioxidant capacity increased after 5 and 10 days of 1 min WBC, -60°C; a decrease was observed at -90°C. A decreased level of erythrocyte malondialdehyde concentration was observed at -60°C after 5 and 10 days of cryostimulation. An increased concentration was measured at -90°C after 10 days, and increase of erythrocyte malondialdehyde concentration after 5 days, -90°C.

conclusionsTo the best of our knowledge, this is the first research showing the effect of WBC in rats at different exposure times and temperatures. The effect of cryotherapy on enzymatic and nonenzymatic antioxidant systems was observed in the serum of animals exposed to a temperature of -60°C in comparison to control.
