Effect of intra-abdominally administered mesalazine (5-aminosalicylic acid) in experimental peritonitis.

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
objectiveIn this study, the effect of mesalazine was studied on TNF alpha IL-1 beta, IL-6, and C-reactive protein (CRP) levels and inflammatory changes in rat lungs with experimental peritonitis.
methodsIn total, 24 male Sprague-Dawley rats weighing 250-280 g were used in the study.The rats were divided into three groups based on no irrigation or irrigation with isotonic solution or mesalazine. Secondary peritonitis was generated by cecum penetrations. Group I, no irrigation was given after the development of peritonitis; Group II, irrigation was performed using isotonic solution 24 h after the development of peritonitis. GROUP III: irrigation was performed using mesalazine 24 h after the development of peritonitis. Blood samples were taken in the 48
resultsTNF alpha, IL-1 beta, and CRP levels were significantly low in Group III than in the other groups (p<0.005). In the histologic examination, leucocyte infiltration in the lung was found low in Group III.
conclusionTNF alpha, IL-1 beta, and CRP levels and leucocyte infiltration in the lung were found to be low in rats that were administered peritoneal irrigation using mesalazine after the development of secondary peritonitis. Peritoneal irrigation using mesalazine may be useful in patients requiring surgery due to secondary peritonitis.
