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

This study aimed to investigate the effects of fullerene C60 on rat liver tissue in a liver ischemia reperfusion injury (IRI) model under sevoflurane anesthesia to evaluate the ability of nanoparticles to prevent hepatic complications. A total of 36 adult female Wistar Albino rats were divided into six groups, each containing six groups as follows: sham group (Group S), fullerene C60 group (Group FC60), ischemia-reperfusion group (Group IR), ischemia-reperfusion-sevoflurane group (Group IR-Sevo), ischemia-reperfusion-fullerene C60 group (Group IR-FC60), and ischemia-reperfusion-fullerene C60-sevoflurane group (Group IR-FC60-Sevo). Fullerene C60 100 mg/kg was administered to IR-FC60 and IR-FC60-Sevo groups. In the IR group, 2 h of ischemia and 2 h of reperfusion were performed. At the end of reperfusion, liver tissues were removed for biochemical assays and histopathological examinations. Hepatocyte degeneration, sinusoidal dilatation, prenecrotic cells, and mononuclear cell infiltration in the parenchyma were significantly higher in Group IR than in all other groups. Thiobarbituric acid reactive substances levels were significantly higher in Group IR than in the other groups, and the lowest thiobarbituric acid reactive substances level was in Group IR-FC60 than in the other groups, except for Groups S and FC60. Catalase and Glutathione-S-transferase activities were reduced in the IR group compared to all other groups. Fullerene C60 had protective effects against liver IR injury in rats under sevoflurane anesthesia. The use of fullerene C60 could reduce the adverse effects of IRI and the associated costs of liver transplantation surgery.
