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

Endothelin-1 has been reported to be responsible for gastric mucosal damage in various experimental models. We evaluated the role of endogenous endothelin-1 in the pathogenesis of gastric mucosal damage induced by indomethacin and HCl in the rat. Rats were given indomethacin (25 mg/kg) subcutaneously, and 15 min later, 0.2N HCl intragastrically. Gastric mucosal damage, gastric endogenous endothelin-1, and gastric mucosal hemodynamics were measured. The effects of bosentan, a mixed endothelin receptor antagonist, on gastric mucosal integrity and hemodynamics were assessed. Gastric endogenous endothelin-1 was significantly elevated at 20 min, gastric mucosal blood flow began to decrease significantly at 25 min, and gastric damage occupied 52.2% of the total glandular mucosa at 135 min after injection of indomethacin. Intragastric pretreatment with bosentan (5, 10, 30, and 60 mg/kg) significantly attenuated gastric damage, to 26.1%, 7.7%, 3.6%, and 1.6%, respectively, of the total glandular mucosa. Bosentan (60 mg/kg) prevented the initial decrease of blood flow and, even at 135 min, improved blood flow and hemoglobin oxygen saturation significantly. We suggest that indomethacin-induced endogenous endothelin-1 diminishes gastric mucosal blood flow and tissue oxygenation and ultimately causes gastric damage. Endogenous endothelin-1 may play an important role in the pathogenesis of the acute gastric mucosal lesions induced by indomethacin and HCl.
