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

backgroundPreviously, we have demonstrated the cardioprotective effect of interleukin (IL)-11 in animal models of acute coronary syndrome. In this study, we sought to evaluate its cardioprotective potential during prolonged hypothermic global ischemia and subsequent reperfusion using a rat heart donor model.

methodsIL-11 was administered intravenously 10 minutes before harvesting the rat heart. The hearts were preserved in cold (4 °C) Krebs-Henseleit buffer for 6 hours, and then attached to a Langendorff perfusion apparatus and reperfused with an oxygenated Krebs-Henseleit solution containing IL-11. Normal saline was used instead of IL-11 in the control group. Functional recovery of the reperfused heart was observed by using a left ventricular balloon. Myocardial cell injury was quantified by measuring the biomarkers collected from the coronary effluent. Apoptotic cells were identified and counted using the terminal deoxynucleotide transferase-mediated dUTP nick-end labeling (TUNEL) staining technique.

resultsIL-11 administration improved myocardial function after 6 hours of cold ischemia. Although there were no significant differences in any of the baseline-measured values between the two groups, left ventricular developed pressure (LVDP) and changes in left ventricular pressures (dP/dt) were significantly higher in the IL-11 group at 120-minute reperfusion. The number of TUNEL-labeled cardiomyocytes was also significantly smaller in the IL-11 group.

conclusionsThe administration of IL-11 showed a significant recovery of cardiac contractile function after 6 hours of cold ischemia. Our data suggest that it may have significant therapeutic potential for maintaining the functional viability of the heart exposed to prolonged hypothermic global ischemia.
