Vitamin C Improves the Outcomes of Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation and Alters Shedding of Syndecan-1 and p38/MAPK Phosphorylation in a Rat Model.

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
Background Post-resuscitation syndrome, involves a severe inflammatory response following successful cardiopulmonary resuscitation. The potential mechanism of Vitamin C (VitC) after cardiopulmonary resuscitation on myocardial and cerebral function, duration of survival is undefined. Methods and Results A first set of experiments were done in 18 male Sprague-Dawley rats for the investigation of short-term follow-up, randomized into 3 groups: (1) sham; (2) controls; (3) VitC. Ventricular fibrillation was electrically induced and untreated for 6 minutes. Cardiopulmonary resuscitation including chest compression and mechanical ventilation were then initiated and continued for 8 minutes followed by defibrillation. At 5 minutes after return of spontaneous circulation, either VitC (200 mg/kg) or placebo was administered by intravenous infusion with a syringe pump for half an hour. There were significant improvements in myocardial function and buccal microcirculation in rats treated with VitC after return of spontaneous circulation 4 hours compared with controls. VitC inhibited proinflammatory cytokines (interleukin-6 and tumor necrosis factor-α), SDC-1 (Syndecan-1), and hyaluronic acid in plasma compared with controls (
