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

Jejunal absorption of glucose, electrolytes, and vitamin A was investigated in rats. A Tyrode solution containing glucose, sodium, and potassium in concentrations two and four times higher than usual was infused through the jejunal loops of jaundiced and control rats during 40 min. The glucose values in the influx and effluent were not different during the experiment time. However, the concentrations of sodium and potassium of the effluent decreased with concentrations twice normal. The osmotic pressure of the effluent was directly related to the electrolytic concentration. When the perfusate fluid was four times higher, the differences between sham and jaundiced groups remained unchanged. The osmotic pressure means of the jaundiced group decreased during the experimental time. The absorption of vitamin A increased during the 40-min experiment time in the control rats. On the other hand, vitamin A concentration in the perfused lumen of the jaundiced group did not change over the time. These data indicate that obstructive jaundice has little influence on glucose and electrolytes absorption, while vitamin A is impaired by this condition.
