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

conclusionThe pancreatic damage initiated via different pathogenetic pathways can be increased by triglycerides. Thus, triglycerides seem to play an important role in the pathogenesis of acute pancreatitis.

backgroundLipolytic enzymes and their substrates may play a role in the pathogenesis of acute necrotizing pancreatitis. We investigated, therefore, whether triglycerides alter the course of acute pancreatitis in three experimental models of rats.

methods1. Edematous acute pancreatitis induced by repeated sc injections of cerulein; 2. Necrotizing acute pancreatitis by retrograde duct injection of sodium taurocholate; and 3. Pancreatic edema by ligation of: a. The bile duct at the liver hilus; b. The common bile/pancreatic duct close to the duodenal wall; or c. A combination of a. and b. Six hours later, rats were sacrificed and the isolated perfused pancreas prepared. The pancreases were perfused with either HEPES/Ringer/HAES alone or in combination with various concentrations of triglycerides (1-5% wt/vol). The activities of lipase and amylase in the portal venous effluents were regarded as a marker of pancreatic injury. In addition, the pancreases were evaluated by light microscopy.

resultsIn both cerulein and taurocholate acute pancreatitis, amylase/lipase activities were significantly higher compared to controls during 45 min of perfusion. In both models, addition of triglycerides caused a dose-dependent marked elevation of enzymes. Ligation (a) did not cause any rise in enzymes in the venous effluent; triglycerides had no effect. Ligation (b) or (c) caused a significant increase of pancreatic enzymes, which was further increased by triglycerides. Histology showed various degrees of severity of tissue damage depending on the model used. The additional damaging effect of a 45-min perfusion with triglycerides, however, could not be detected by histology.
