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

Repeated low-dose administration of lipopolysaccharide (LPS) attenuates subsequent fetal responses, which makes it challenging to investigate interventions to prolonged exposure. Our aim was to develop a fetal inflammatory response syndrome (FIRS) model that consistently and effectively elicits a marked physiological response to increasing LPS doses. Four intravenous LPS boluses (0.3, 1.5, 3, and 15 μg) were administered to fetal sheep over 5 days. Physiological responses were measured via blood gases, pH, lactate, and cortisol concentrations. Fetal peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) were analyzed for transcriptomic changes and tissue cytokine expression postmortem. All LPS challenges increased lactate, cortisol, and pCO
