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

objectiveThis study is aimed at investigating the therapeutic effects of tetrandrine (Tet) on myocardial ischemia reperfusion (I/R) injury and probe into underlying molecular mechanism.

methodsH9C2 cells were divided into hypoxia/oxygenation (H/R) group, H/R+Tet group, H/R+Tet+negative control (NC) group, and H/R+Tet+miR-202-5p inhibitor group. RT-qPCR was utilized to monitor miR-202-5p and TRPV2 expression, and TRPV2 protein expression was detected via western blot and immunohistochemistry in H9C2 cells. Cardiomyocyte apoptosis was evaluated through detection of apoptosis-related markers and flow cytometry. Furthermore, myocardial enzyme levels were detected by ELISA. Rats were randomly separated into sham operation group, I/R group, I/R+Tet group (50 mg/kg), I/R+Tet+NC group, and I/R+Tet+miR-202-5p inhibitor group. miR-202-5p and TRPV2 mRNA expression was assessed by RT-qPCR. TRPV2 protein expression was detected through western blot and immunohistochemistry in myocardial tissues. Apoptotic levels were assessed via apoptosis-related proteins and TUNEL. Pathological changes were observed by H&E staining. Myocardial infarction size was examined by Evans blue-TCC staining.

resultsAbnormally expressed miR-202-5p as well as TRPV2 was found in H/R H9C2 cells and myocardial tissues of I/R rats, which was ameliorated following Tet treatment. Tet treatment significantly suppressed H/R- or I/R-induced cardiomyocyte apoptosis. ELISA results showed that CK-MB and LDH levels were lowered by Tet treatment in H/R H9C2 cells and serum of I/R rats. H&E staining indicated that Tet reduced myocardial injury in I/R rats. Also, myocardial infarction size was lowered by Tet treatment. The treatment effects of Tet were altered following cotreatment with miR-202-5p inhibitor.

conclusionOur findings revealed that Tet may ameliorate myocardial I/R damage via targeting the miR-202-5p/TRPV2 axis.
