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

backgroundCardiac arrest carries a poor prognosis. The typical cardiac arrest patient is comorbid, and studies have shown that diabetes mellitus is an independent risk factor for increased mortality after cardiac arrest. Despite this, animal studies lack to investigate cardiac arrest in the setting of diabetes mellitus. We hypothesize that type 2 diabetes mellitus in a rat model of cardiac arrest is associated with increased organ dysfunction when compared with non-diabetic rats.

methodsZucker diabetic fatty (ZDF) rats (n = 13), non-diabetic Zucker lean control (ZLC) rats (n = 15), and non-diabetic Sprague Dawley (SprD) rats (n = 8), underwent asphyxia-induced cardiac arrest. Animals were resuscitated and monitored for 180 min after return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC). Blood levels of neuron-specific enolase were measured to assess neurological injury. Cardiac function was evaluated by echocardiography.

resultsNo differences in cardiac output or neuron-specific enolase existed between the groups at baseline. Median levels of neuron-specific enolase 180 min after ROSC was 10.8 μg/L (Q

conclusionsIn a cardiac arrest model, neuronal injury is increased in type 2 diabetes mellitus animals compared with non-diabetic controls. Although this study lacks to uncover the specific mechanisms causing increased neuronal injury, the establishment of a cardiac arrest model of type 2 diabetes mellitus lays the important foundation for further experimental investigations within this field.
