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

Background: Ischemia-reperfusion injury remains the main constraint of normothermic perfusion. The present study investigated the potential of therapies targeting reperfusion injury such as triiodothyronine and interventions mimicking ischemic preconditioning (PC) to optimize normothermic crystalloid perfusion. Methods: Rat hearts were perfused for 6 h with constant flow, in a Langendorff mode and Krebs-Henseleit as perfusate with glucose being the only metabolic substrate, (NP, Results: Baseline parameters were similar between groups. At the end of perfusion, no difference in LVDP was observed, LVEDP was significantly lower in PC and PC + T3 vs. NP, Conclusion: Intermittent low flow mimicking ischemic preconditioning (PC) appears to optimize crystalloid based normothermic rat heart perfusion by limiting tissue edema and diastolic and vascular dysfunction.
