Effects of Hypothermia and Allopurinol on Oxidative Status in a Rat Model of Hypoxic Ischemic Encephalopathy.
Article in Antioxidants (Basel, Switzerland), 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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
Hypoxic ischemic encephalopathy (HIE) is one of the main causes of morbidity and mortality during the neonatal period, despite treatment with hypothermia. There is evidence that oxidative damage plays an important role in the pathophysiology of hypoxic-ischemic (HI) brain injury. Our aim was to investigate whether postnatal allopurinol administration in combination with hypothermia would reduce oxidative stress (OS) biomarkers in an animal model of HIE. Postnatal 10-day rat pups underwent unilateral HI of moderate severity. Pups were randomized into: Sham operated, hypoxic-ischemic (HI), HI + allopurinol (HIA), HI + hypothermia (HIH), and HI + hypothermia + allopurinol (HIHA). Biomarkers of OS and antioxidants were evaluated: GSH/GSSG ratio and carbonyl groups were tested in plasma. Total antioxidant capacity (TAC) was analyzed in plasma and cerebrospinal fluid, and 8-iso-prostaglandin F2α was measured in brain tissue. Plasma 2,2'-azinobis-(3-ethyl-benzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) (ABTS) levels were preserved in those groups that received allopurinol and dual therapy. In cerebrospinal fluid, only the HIA group presented normal ferric reducing ability of plasma (FRAP) levels. Protein oxidation and lipid peroxidation were significantly reduced in all groups treated with hypothermia and allopurinol, thus enhancing neuroprotection in HIE.
