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

Inhibition of hypoxia/reoxygenation (H/R)-induced insult in cardiac microvascular endothelial cells (CMECs) has been considered as a promising therapeutic strategy for the treatment of ischemic cardiovascular disease. In the present study, we found that H/R significantly increased the expression of dipeptidyl peptidase (DPP)-4 in CMECs. Treatment with the DPP-4 inhibitor sitagliptin, a licensed drug used for the treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), ameliorated H/R-induced oxidative stress by decreasing the expression of NOX-4 and restoring the intracellular level of GSH in CMECs. Sitagliptin could also improve H/R-induced mitochondrial dysfunction by increasing intracellular MMP and ATP. Additionally, we found that the presence of sitagliptin prevented H/R-induced reduced cell viability and LDH release. Notably, our findings indicate that sitagliptin possesses an anti-inflammatory effect against H/R-induced expression of IL-6, IL-8, and TNF-α as well as secretion of HMGB1. Mechanistically, we found that sitagliptin suppresses activation of p38/NF-κB signaling. These findings suggest that sitagliptin may have potential as a therapeutic agent for the treatment of cardiovascular diseases.
