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

Purpose: The purpose of the current study was to investigate alterations in retinal oxygen delivery, metabolism, and extraction fraction and elucidate their relationships in an experimental model of retinal ischemia. Methods: We subjected 14 rats to permanent bilateral common carotid artery occlusion using clamp or suture ligation, or they underwent sham procedure. Within 30 minutes of the procedure, phosphorescence lifetime imaging was performed to measure retinal vascular oxygen tension and derive arterial and venous oxygen contents, and arteriovenous oxygen content difference. Fluorescent microsphere and red-free retinal imaging were performed to measure total retinal blood flow. Retinal oxygen delivery rate (DO2), oxygen metabolism rate (MO2), and oxygen extraction fraction (OEF) were calculated. Results: DO2 and MO2 were lower in ligation and clamp groups compared to the sham group, and also lower in the ligation group compared to the clamp group (P ≤ 0.05). OEF was higher in the ligation group compared to clamp and sham groups (P ≤ 0.03). The relationships of MO2 and OEF with DO2 were mathematically modeled by exponential functions. With moderate DO2 reductions, OEF increased while MO2 minimally decreased. Under severe DO2 reductions, OEF reached a maximum value and subsequently MO2 decreased with DO2. Conclusions: The findings improve knowledge of mechanisms that can maintain MO2 and may clarify the pathophysiology of retinal ischemic injury.
