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

purposeGlaucocalyxin A (GLA), a diterpenoid with antioxidative and anti-inflammatory properties, has shown vascular protective effects in preclinical models. This study aimed to evaluate whether GLA improves colonic anastomotic integrity following ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury.

methodsTwenty-four female Sprague Dawley rats were randomized into three groups (n = 8): control + GLA, I/R, and I/R + GLA. I/R was induced by 60-minute superior mesenteric artery occlusion and 60-minute reperfusion before end-to-end colonic anastomosis. GLA (10 mg/kg) was administered intraperitoneally. On postoperative day 7, anastomotic bursting pressure, adhesion scores, hydroxyproline, oxidative stress markers (total oxidative status, total antioxidant capacity, ischemia-modified albumin), and histopathology were evaluated.

resultsThe I/R + GLA group demonstrated significantly higher bursting pressure compared with the I/R group (126 versus 40 mmHg; p < 0.005). Tissue TOS levels were significantly lower in the I/R + GLA group compared with both other groups (p < 0.005). No significant differences were found in hydroxyproline levels, IMA values, or histopathological healing scores.

conclusionGLA may support colonic anastomotic healing after I/R injury by reducing oxidative stress and could serve as a potential protective agent against anastomotic compromise.
