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

objectivesTo investigate the influence of cyclosporin A (CsA) pre-treatment and etomidate (ETO) post-treatment on lung injury induced by limb ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) in rats.

methodsRats were randomly divided into five groups: sham, I/R, I/R+CsA, I/R+ETO, and I/R+CsA+ETO. Limb I/R lung injury was established by bilateral clamping of the femoral arteries for 2 hours. Following reperfusion for 3 hours, blood gas analysis was performed. Pathological changes were assessed using immunohistochemistry. The apoptosis index (AI) and wet/dry weight ratio (W/D) were calculated. Levels of Fas protein and FasL mRNA were assessed by western blotting and RT-PCR, respectively. Tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α and interleukin (IL)-1β were detected by ELISA.

resultsI/R resulted in decreased PaO

conclusionsETO post-treatment and CsA pretreatment reduced lung injury induced by limb I/R in rats. The mechanism may be related to synergistic inhibition of Fas/FasL signaling.
