Functional changes of airway epithelial cells and mitochondria in rat models of asthenic lung and phlegm blocking combined with cough variant asthma.

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
The aim of this study was to investigated the functional changes of airway epithelial cells and mitochondria in rat models of asthenic lung and phlegm blocking combined with cough variant asthma (CVA). Sixteen Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into two groups: Control and model group, with 8 rats in each group. On the basis of the CVA rat model induced and sensitized by ovalbumin and aluminum hydroxide, the rat models with asthenic lung and phlegm blocking combined with CVA were established via smoking stimulation. The rats in the control group were injected with equivalent normal saline. All rats were sacrificed after the model was successfully prepared. The lung histopathological sections of the two groups of rats were observed, and respiratory control ratio (RCR) of mitochondria and membrane potential changes were compared. The results showed that the rats in the model group had tracheal structure abnormities, epithelial cell damages, cilia structure defects, capillary injection, alveolar exudates, and inflammatory cells compared to those in the control group. RCR of mitochondria and membrane potential of rats in the model group were significantly lower than those of rats in the control group (P<0.05). Damaged lung tissue and decreased mitochondrial activity and membrane potential are detected in the rat models of asthenic lung and phlegm blocking combined with CVA.
