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

Fibroblast growth factor 21 (FGF21) exerts a protective effect in ischemia/reperfusion (I/R)-induced cardiac injury. However, the exact molecular mechanism underlying the FGF21 action remains unclear. The present study aimed to evaluate the role of angiopoietin-2 (Angpt2) in the cardioprotective effect of FGF21. For this purpose, the H9C2 cell line was subjected to simulated I/R or aerobic conditions with or without FGF21 administration. Certain groups were also transfected with Angpt2 small interfering RNA (siRNA). Cell viability, apoptosis rate and cell migration were examined, and the expression levels of Angpt2, glucose transporter 1 (GLUT1) and caspase-3 were measured by quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) and western blot analyses. The results demonstrated that FGF21 administration suppressed apoptosis and increased the cell migration ability following I/R-induced injury. qPCR and western blot data showed a decreased level of GLUT1 after I/R-induced injury, which was reversed by FGF21 administration. Furthermore, inhibition of Angpt2 expression using siRNA enhanced the cardioprotective effect of FGF21 by upregulation of GLUT1. In conclusion, FGF21 administration protected against I/R-induced injury in cardiomyocytes, and further inhibition of Angpt2 with FGF21 administration induced the expression of GLUT1, which may promote the energy metabolism in cardiomyocytes, consequently resulting in a more efficient cardioprotective effect. These results suggested that FGF21 administration and inhibition of Angpt2 could be a novel therapeutic approach for I/R-induced cardiac injury.
