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

backgroundApelins are potential candidate therapeutic molecules for hemodynamic support. The objective of this study was to assess the hemodynamic impacts of apelin-13 in a neonatal lamb model of septic shock.

methodsLambs were randomized to receive apelin-13 or normal saline. Septic shock was induced by injecting a fecal slurry into the peritoneal cavity. Lambs underwent volume repletion (30 mL/kg over 1 h) followed by intravenous administration of 5 incremental doses (D) of apelin-13 (D1 = 0.039 to D5 = 19.5 µg/kg/h) or normal saline.

resultsFollowing fecal injection, mean arterial pressure (MAP) and cardiac index (CI) dropped in both groups (p < 0.05). The MAP decreased non-significantly from D1 to D5 (p = 0.12) in the saline group, while increasing significantly (p = 0.02) in the apelin group (-12 (-17; 12) vs. +15 (6; 23) % (p = 0.012)). Systemic vascular resistances were higher in the apelin-13 group at D5 compared to the saline group (4337 (3239, 5144) vs. 2532 (2286, 3966) mmHg/min/mL, respectively, p = 0.046). The CI increased non-significantly in the apelin-13 group.

conclusionApelin-13 increased MAP in a neonatal lamb septic shock model. IMPACT: Administration of apelin-13 stabilized hemodynamics during the progression of the sepsis induced in this neonatal lamb model. Systemic vascular resistances were higher in the apelin-13 group than in the placebo group. This suggests ontogenic differences in vascular response to apelin-13 and warrants further investigation. This study suggests that apelin-13 could eventually become a candidate for the treatment of neonatal septic shock.
