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

We previously showed that the mitochondrial fatty acid oxidation enzyme long-chain acyl-CoA dehydrogenase (LCAD) is expressed in alveolar type II pneumocytes and that LCAD-/- mice have altered breathing mechanics and surfactant defects. Here, we hypothesized that LCAD-/- mice would be susceptible to influenza infection. Indeed, LCAD-/- mice demonstrated increased mortality following infection with 2009 pandemic influenza (A/CA/07/09). However, the mortality was not due to increased lung injury, as inflammatory cell counts, viral titers, and histology scores all showed non-significant trends toward milder injury in LCAD-/- mice. To confirm this, LCAD-/- were infected with a second, mouse-adapted H1N1 virus (A/PR/8/34), to which they responded with significantly less lung injury. While both strains become increasingly hypoglycemic over the first week post-infection, LCAD-/- mice lose body weight more rapidly than wild-type mice. Surprisingly, while acutely fasted LCAD-/- mice develop hepatic steatosis, influenza-infected LCAD-/- mice do not. They do, however, become more hypothermic than wild-type mice and demonstrate increased blood lactate values. We conclude that LCAD-/- mice succumb to influenza from bioenergetic starvation, likely due to increased reliance upon glucose for energy.
