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

objectiveTo establish an experimental prostatitis animal model in Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats through induction by treatment of estrogen and androgen at different concentrations.

methodsFifty-three male SD rats aged 3 to 4 months were used in the study, and the castration model of male rats was established by excision of bilateral testes. The rats were randomly assigned to a blank group, a castration group and treatment groups receiving estrogen and androgen at different concentrations after castration, with 4 rats in each group. Dihydrotestosterone (DHT) and estradiol (E) were administered daily by subcutaneous injection to the treatment groups. All the rats were sacrificed by way of cervical dislocation after 1 month and the serum DHT and E concentrations of the rats in each group were assessed with ELISA. Prostate specimens were collected and the relative weight of the prostate of each group of rats was calculated. After HE staining of the prostate tissue, we observed with optic microscope structural changes in the prostate tissue and the state of prostatic inflammation in each group. Immunohistochemical examination was done to assess the expression of three inflammatory factors, transforming growth factor-β1 (TGF-β1), interleukin (IL)-6 and IL-8, in rat prostate tissues.

resultsThe results of HE staining of rat prostate tissue showed that, compared with the blank group and castration group, the degree of inflammation increased significantly in the E0.05+DHT 0.5 mg/kg group and DHT0.15+E0.15 mg/kg group (

conclusionCastration combined with treatment of different concentrations of estrogen and androgen could successfully induce the prostatitis model in SD rats.
