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

introductionExposure to gamma-aminobutyric acid-mimetics and N-methyl-D-aspartate-receptor antagonists during pregnancy may lead to hearing loss and long-term behavioral abnormalities in the offspring. The purpose of this study was to explore the association between prenatal exposure to sevoflurane (SEV) anesthesia and hearing impairment in mice. MATERIALS AND

methodsOn gestational day 15, pregnant Kunming mice were exposed for 2 hours to 2.5% SEV plus 100% oxygen (anesthesia group) or 100% oxygen alone (control group).

resultsDuring auditory brainstem response testing on P30, offspring of the anesthesia group mice exhibited higher hearing thresholds at 8, 16, 24, and 32 kHz; longer peak latency of wave II at all four frequencies; and longer interpeak latencies from waves II to V at 16, 24, and 32 kHz, compared to the control offspring. Caspase-3, iNOS, and COX-2 activation occurred in the fetal cochlea of the anesthesia group. Mitochondrial swelling was observed in the anesthesia group offspring at P1 and P15.

conclusionOur results suggest that SEV exposure during pregnancy may cause detrimental effects on the developing auditory system.
