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

Tramadol (TR) is a centrally acting analgesic drug that is used to relieve pain. The therapeutic (0.1-0.8 mg/l), toxic (1-2 mg/l) and lethal (>2 mg/l) ranges were reported for TR. The present study was designed to evaluate which doses of TR can induce liver mitochondrial toxicity. Mitochondria were isolated from the five rats' liver and were incubated with therapeutic to lethal concentrations (1.7-600 μM) of TR. Biomarkers of oxidative stress including: reactive oxygen species (ROS), lipid peroxidation (LPO), protein carbonyl content, glutathione (GSH) content, mitochondrial function, mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP) and mitochondrial swelling were assessed. Our results showed that ROS and LPO at 100 μM and protein carbonylation at 600 μM concentrations of TR were significantly increased. GSH was decreased specifically at 600 μM concentration. Mitochondrial function, MMP and mitochondrial swelling decreased in isolated rat liver mitochondria after exposure to 100 and 300 μM, respectively. This study suggested that TR at therapeutic and toxic levels by single exposure could not induce mitochondrial toxicity. But, in lethal concentration (≥100 μM), TR induced oxidative damage and mitochondria dysfunction. This study suggested that ROS overproduction by increasing of TR concentration induced mitochondrial dysfunction and caused mitochondrial damage via Complex II and membrane permeability transition pores disorders, MMP collapse and mitochondria swelling.
