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

Adriamycin is a cytotoxic anthracycline antibiotic used to treat a wide variety of cancers. This study was made to detect the possible prophylactic effects of combining garlic and resveratrol in preventing adriamycin-induced pulmonary cytotoxicity. This study was conducted on a total number of 60 adult male albino rats. The rats were divided in an equally random manner into 6 groups: group I rats received nothing, group II received a dose of 50 mg/kg garlic extract orally for 3 weeks, group III received resveratrol in a dose of 20 mg/kg/day orally for 3 weeks, group IV rats were injected with 20 mg/kg adriamycin as a single dose via intraperitoneal route, group V received garlic extract for 3 weeks, then were injected with adriamycin in the same stated doses, and Group VI received garlic extract and resveratrol in same stated dose for 3 weeks, then were injected with adriamycin in the same stated dose. Lung specimens were processed for light microscopic, ultrastructural, and immunohistochemical studies. Adriamycin treatment caused histological alterations, thicker interstitial septa, extensive cellular infiltration, hypertrophied arterial wall, marked inducible Nitric Oxide Synthase immunoreaction, type I pneumocytes with destructed organelles as well as type II pneumocytes having large vacuoles. The combined garlic and resveratrol group demonstrated a considerable improvement in the changes to the histology and ultrastructure of adriamycin-induced lung injury. Combining garlic and resveratrol can prevent adriamycin-induced lung cytotoxicity in albino rats.
