The influence of upright posture on craniospinal, arteriovenous, and abdominal pressures in a chronic ovine in-vivo trial.

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
introductionMost investigations into postural influences on craniospinal and adjacent physiology have been performed in anesthetized animals. A comprehensive study evaluating these physiologies while awake has yet been completed.
methodsSix awake sheep had telemetric pressure sensors (100 Hz) implanted to measure intracranial, intrathecal, arterial, central venous, cranial, caudal, dorsal, and ventral intra-abdominal pressure (ICP, ITP, ABP, CVP, IAPcr, IAPcd, IAPds, IAPve, respectively). They were maneuvered upright by placing in a chair for two minutes; repeated 25 times over one month. Changes in mean and pulse pressure were calculated by comparing pre-chair, P0, with three phases during the maneuver: P1, chair entrance; P2, chair halftime; P3, prior to chair exit. Statistical significance (p ≤ .05) was assessed using repeated measures ANOVA.
resultsSignificant mean pressure changes of (P1 - P0) and (P3 - P0) were measured at - 12.1 ± 3.1 and - 14.2 ± 3.0(p < .001), 40.8 ± 10.5 and 37.7 ± 3.5(p = .019), 9.7 ± 8.3 and 6.2 ± 5.3(p = .012), 22.3 ± 29.8 and 12.5 ± 12.1(p = .042), and 11.7 ± 3.9 and 9.0 ± 5.2(p = .014) mmHg, for ICP, ITP, IAPds, IAPcr, IAPca, respectively. For pulse pressures, significant changes of (P1 - P0) and (P3 - P0) were measured at - 1.3 ± 0.7 and - 2.0 ± 1.1(p < .001), 4.7 ± 2.3 and 1.4 ± 1.4(p < .001), 15.0 ± 10.2 and 7.3 ± 5.5(p < .001), - 0.7 ± 1.8 and - 1.7 ± 1.7(p < .001), - 1.3 ± 4.2 and - 1.4 ± 4.7(p = .006), and 0.3 ± 3.9 and - 1.0 ± 1.3(p < .001) mmHg, for ICP, ITP, ABP, IAPds, IAPcr, IAPca, respectively.
conclusionsPressures changed posture-dependently to differing extents. Changes were most pronounced immediately after entering upright posture (P1) and became less prominent over the chair duration (P2-to-P3), suggesting increased physiologic compensation. Dynamic changes in IAP varied across abdominal locations, motivating the abdominal cavity not to be considered as a unified entity, but sub-compartments with individual dynamics.
