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

backgroundHypoxia-ischemia (HI) results in increased activation of Ca2+/calmodulin kinase IV (CaM kinase IV) mediated by Src kinase. Therapeutic hypothermia ameliorates neuronal injury in the newborn. HYPOTHESIS: Inhibition of Src kinase concurrently with hypothermia further attenuates the hypoxia-induced increased activation of CaM kinase IV compared with hypothermia alone. DESIGN/

methodsVentilated piglets were exposed to HI, received saline or a selective Src kinase inhibitor (PP2), and were cooled to 33°C. Neuropathology, adenosine triphosphate (ATP) and phosphocreatine (PCr) concentrations, and CaM kinase IV activity were determined.

resultsThe neuropathology mean score (mean ± SD) was 0.4 ± 0.43 in normoxia-normothermia (p < 0.05 vs. hypoxia-normothermia), 3.5 ± 0.89 in hypoxia-normothermia (p < 0.05 vs. normoxia-normothermia), 0.7 ± 0.73 in hypoxia-hypothermia (p < 0.05 vs. normoxia-normothermia), and 0.5 ± 0.70 in normoxia-hypothermia (p < 0.05 vs. hypoxia-normothermia). The CaM kinase IV activity in cerebral tissue (pmol Pi/mg protein/min; mean ± SD) was 2,002 ± 729 in normoxia-normothermia, 1,704 ± 18 in normoxia-hypothermia, 6,017 ± 2,510 in hypoxia-normothermia, 4,104 ± 542 in hypoxia-hypothermia (p < 0.05 vs. normoxia-hypothermia), and 2,165 ± 415 in hypoxia-hypothermia with PP2 (p < 0.05 vs. hypoxia-hypothermia). The hypoxic groups with and without hypothermia or Src kinase inhibitor were comparable in the levels of ATP and PCr, indicating that they were similar in their degree of energy failure prior to treatments. Hypothermia or Src kinase inhibitor (PP2) did not restore the ATP and PCr levels.

conclusionsHypothermia and Src kinase inhibition attenuated apoptotic cell death and improved neuropathology after hypoxia. The combination of short-duration hypothermia with Src kinase inhibition following hypoxia further attenuates the increased activation of CaM kinase IV compared to hypothermia alone in the newborn swine brain.
