Indices of muscle and liver dysfunction after surviving hemorrhage and prolonged hypotension.
Article in The journal of trauma and acute care surgery, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
backgroundThis study determined the long-term effects of prolonged hypotension (PH) on liver, muscle, and kidney dysfunction. The hypothesis was that longer duration of PH after hemorrhage will result in greater organ dysfunction.
methodsBaboons were sedated and hemorrhaged (30% blood volume). Systolic blood pressure greater than 80 mm Hg was maintained for 1 hour (1 hr-PH; n = 5), 2 hours (2 hr-PH; n = 5), or 3 hours (3 hr-PH; n = 5). After PH, hemorrhage volume was replaced. Animals were recovered and monitored for 21 days. Control animals were hemorrhaged and immediately resuscitated (0 hr-PH, n = 3). Data are Mean ± Standard Deviation, and analyzed by 2-way repeated measures ANOVA and Holm-Sidak test.
resultsHemorrhage resulted in mild hypotension. Minimal resuscitation was required during the hypotensive phase, and survival rate was 100%. Significant increases (p < 0.001) in alanine aminotransferase, aspartate aminotransferase, creatine phosphokinase, and lactate dehydrogenase occurred on Day 1 after PH, and were significantly greater (p < 0.001) in the 2 hr- and 3 hr-PH groups than the 0 hr-PH group. Maximum alanine aminotransferase levels (U/L) were 140 ± 56 (0 hr-PH), 170 ± 130 (1 hr-PH), 322 ± 241 (2 hr-PH), and 387 ± 167 (3 hr-PH). Maximum aspartate aminotransferase levels (U/L) were 218 ± 44 (0 hr-PH), 354 ± 219 (1 hr-PH), 515 ± 424 (2 hr-PH), and 711 ± 278 (3 hr-PH). Maximum creatine phosphokinase values (U/L) were 7834 ± 3681 (0 hr-PH), 24336 ± 22268 (1 hr-PH), 50494 ± 67653 (2 hr-PH), and 59857 ± 32408 (3 hr-PH). Maximum lactic acid dehydrogenase values (U/L) were 890 ± 396 (0 hr-PH), 2055 ± 1520 (1 hr-PH), 3992 ± 4895 (2 hr-PH), and 4771 ± 1884 (3 hr-PH). Plasma creatinine and blood urea nitrogen were unaffected by PH (p > 0.10).
conclusionThese results indicate that PH up to 3 hours in duration results in transient liver and muscle dysfunction that was most severe after 2 hr-PH and 3 hr-PH. Prolonged hypotension produced minimal effects on the kidney. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: Basic science research, Level of evidence not required for basic science research.
