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

Severe burn injury results in systemic inflammation, edema, multiple organ disorder and muscle wasting. These events are provoked by the massive dysfunction of mitochondria not only in the burned skin but also in muscles and internal organs, which is induced by the release of damage-associated molecular patterns and catecholamines. Dysfunctional mitochondria are characterized by increased ROS production and the release of mitochondrial DNA, which lead to enhanced expression of proinflammatory cytokines. Mitochondria present a key target for treatment of severe burns, and various pharmacological approaches are being developed to protect normal mitochondrial functions after burn injury.
