Establishment of a novel and effective reflux laryngitis model in rabbits: a preliminary study.

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.
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
purposeTo establish a novel and effective reflux model with a modified nasogastric aspiration tube and to investigate the association between different types of nasogastric aspiration tubes and reflux laryngitis, we conducted this study.
methodsThirty-eight healthy New Zealand albino rabbits (2.5-3.5 kg) were divided into three groups: control (CTR, n = 6)-non-intubated; normal nasogastric intubation (NNI, n = 16)-intubated with 4#, 6#, 8#, and 10# normal nasogastric aspiration tubes; and modified nasogastric intubation (MNI, n = 16)-intubated with 4#, 6#, 8#, and 10# modified nasogastric aspiration tubes. The laryngoscopy, body weight, and pH values at the esophageal entrance were recorded before and 1, 2, and 4 weeks after intubation. After the final laryngoscopy, the animals in groups with a pH below 4 were sacrificed to obtain histological and gene expression analysis results.
resultsThe reflux finding score (RFS) after 4 weeks showed that there was a statistically significant difference in the 8# NNI group (7 ± 0.816, P < 0.001), the 8# MNI group (11.5 ± 2.517, P < 0.001) and the 10# MNI (12.75 ± 1.893, P < 0.001) group compared with the control group (1.83 ± 1.602). The pH values of these three groups were lower than 4. However, the weight loss of the rabbits in the 10# NNI and 10# MNI groups was more obvious. Submucous gland hyperplasia and inflammation were significantly increased in the 8# NNI group, 8# MNI group and the 10# MNI group, but in the level of some pro-inflammatory cytokines and COX-2, the MNI group was significantly higher than the NNI group (8# NNI × 8# MNI, P < 0.01; 8# MNI × 10# MNI, P < 0.01).
conclusionThis study showed that 8# modified nasogastric intubation (MNI) produces effective reflux laryngitis in the rabbits.
