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

Objective: To develop and validate thin-film micro-outlet devices to study microvascular blood flow responses to localized changes in skeletal muscle oxygen concentration ([O Methods: 30 male Sprague-Dawley rats (159-194 g) were anesthetized and instrumented to maintain cardiovascular state. The extensor digitorum longus (EDL) muscle was dissected, isolated, and reflected over a gas exchange chamber (GEC) mounted in the stage of an inverted microscope. The GEC and EDL were coupled via a composite, gas permeable membrane, and a gas impermeable film fabricated with laser machined micro-outlets of specific diameters (200, 400, 600, and 1,000 μm). [O Results: [O Conclusion: Our composite thin-film devices were fabricated and validated to spatially confine oxygen perturbations to capillaries using micro-outlets of varying diameters. These results demonstrate that our devices can manipulate capillary SO
