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

backgroundThis study aims to evaluate the efficiency of oleanolic acid on acute lung injury and acute respiratory distress syndrome.

methodsThe study included 70 female Wistar albino rats (weighing 180 to 200 g). We created seven groups, each consisting of 10 rats. Then, we generated acute lung injuries by intra-tracheal peroxynitrite injection in every group except for the control group. We investigated the effect of oleanolic acid. For this purpose, we measured the levels of malondialdehyde, interleukin 1 beta, interleukin 4, interleukin 10 and tumor necrosis factor alpha in the collected blood samples from the rats. In addition, we examined the lung tissue samples histopathologically and assessed the rate of apoptosis.

resultsPeroxynitrite injected groups at 24 and 48 h showed a statistically significant increase in interleukin 1 beta, tumor necrosis factor alpha, interleukin 4, interleukin 10 and malondialdehyde levels, which are accepted as mediators of the inflammatory process, compared to the control group. When peroxynitrite injected groups at 24 and 48 h were compared to the treatment groups of the same hour, a statistically significant decrease was detected. According to histopathological examination, peroxynitrite injected groups at 24 and 48 h showed a significant increase of tissue injury scores compared to the control group. However, the groups that were treated with oleanolic acid showed a significant decrease compared to the peroxynitrite groups (p<0.001 for tumor necrosis factor alpha and apoptosis results at 48 h).

conclusionIn this study, we confirmed that oleanolic acid can be an effective agent for the prevention of acute lung injury generated via peroxynitrite.
