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

introductionSepsis is a dysregulated systemic immune response to infection which may result in mortality. It may also lead to organ injury, including injury to the lung. French maritime pine bark extract (MPBE) has been proposed to prevent/treat various inflammatory diseases due to its strong anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects. This study evaluates the protective and therapeutic effects of MPBE on lung injury induced by intraperitoneal MATERIALS AND

methodsThe study design was as follows: Control, MPBE20, MPBE50, LPS, LPS+MPBE20 and LPS+MPBE50. Blood and lung tissue samples were collected 6 h after the LPS induction following a 10-day administration of MPBE.

resultsLPS-induced sepsis was confirmed by the overproduction of IL-1β and TNF-α in bloodstream compared to the Control (

conclusionsMPBE appears to regulate P2X7R signaling and the inflammatory-apoptotic pathway by protecting the lung from oxidative cell damage in LPS-induced sepsis in vivo.
