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

backgroundIn dogs with portal hypertension (PH), spec cPL is suggested to be increased despite normal pancreatic histology. After attenuation of congenital extrahepatic portosystemic shunts (cEHPSS), multiple acquired portosystemic shunt (MAPSS) can develop as consequence of sustained PH. Presence of MAPSS affects future therapeutic options and prognosis.

objectiveEvaluate if spec cPL concentrations increase postoperatively in dogs that develop MAPSS and can thus serve as an indicator of PH. ANIMALS: Twenty-four dogs with cEHPSS.

methodsDogs classified according to surgical outcome after cEHPSS attenuation (8 with MAPSS [group M], 9 with closed cEHPSS [group C] and 7 with patent blood flow through the original cEHPSS, without evidence of MAPSS [group P]). Spec cPL was measured in preoperative samples (T0), 4 days (T1) and 1 (T2) and 3- to 6-months (T3) after surgery.

resultsSpec cPL was within reference interval (<200 μg/L) at all timepoints except at T1. At T1, 2 dogs in group M (321 and >2000 μg/L) and also 1 in group C (688 μg/L) and 1 in group P (839 μg/L) had increased spec cPL concentrations. No differences in spec cPL concentrations between groups or changes over time were identified. CONCLUSIONS AND CLINICAL IMPORTANCE: Spec cPL is not consistently increased in dogs that develop MAPSS after cEHPSS attenuation and has no potential as a biomarker for the identification of MAPSS after cEHPSS attenuation.
