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

backgroundHyperinsulinemia is associated with equine laminitis, and digital lamellar inflammation in equine metabolic syndrome-associated laminitis (EMSAL) is modest when compared with sepsis-associated laminitis.

objectivesTo characterize digital lamellar inflammation in horses in a euglycemic-hyperinsulinemic clamp (EHC) model of laminitis. ANIMALS: Sixteen healthy adult Standardbred horses.

methodsProspective experimental study. Horses underwent EHC or saline infusion (CON) for 48 hours or until the onset of Obel grade 1 laminitis. Horses were euthanized, and digital lamellar tissue was collected and analyzed via polymerase chain reaction (pro-inflammatory cytokine and chemokine genes-CXCL1, CXCL6, CXCL8, IL-6, MCP-1, MCP-2, IL-1β, IL11, cyclooxygenases 1 and 2, tumor necrosis factor alpha [TNF-α], E-selectin, and ICAM-1), immunoblotting (phosphorylated and total signal transducer and activator of transcription 1 [STAT1], STAT3, and p38MAPK), and immunohistochemistry (markers of leukocyte infiltration: CD163, MAC387).

resultsLamellar mRNA concentrations of IL-1β, IL-6, IL-11, COX-2, and E-selectin were increased; the concentration of COX-1 was decreased; and concentrations of CXCL1, CXCL6, MCP-1, MCP-2, IL-8, TNF-α and ICAM-1 were not significantly different in the EHC group compared to the CON group (P ≤ .003). Lamellar concentrations of phosphorylated STAT proteins (P-STAT1 [S727], P-STAT1 [Y701], P-STAT3 [S727], and P-STAT3 [Y705]) were increased in the EHC group compared to the CON group, with phosphorylated STAT3 localizing to nuclei of lamellar basal epithelial cells. There was no change in the lamellar concentration of P-p38 MAPK (T180/Y182), but the concentration of total p38 MAPK was decreased in the EHC samples. There was no evidence of notable lamellar leukocyte emigration. CONCLUSIONS AND CLINICAL IMPORTANCE: These results establish a role for lamellar inflammatory signaling under conditions associated with EMSAL.
