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

Angina pectoris is the most common manifestation of coronary heart disease, causing suffering in patients. Electroacupuncture at PC6 can effectively alleviate angina by regulating the expression of genes, whether the alternative splicing (AS) of genes is affected by acupuncture is still unknown. We established a rat model of myocardial ischemia-reperfusion by coronary artery ligation and confirmed electroacupuncture alleviated the abnormal discharge caused by angina pectoris measured in EMG electromyograms. Analysis of the GSE61840 dataset established that AS events were altered after I/R and regulated by electroacupuncture. I/R decreased the expression of splicing factor Nova1 while electroacupuncture rescued it. Further experiments in dorsal root ganglion cells showed Nova1 regulated the AS of the GABRG2, specifically on its exon 9 where an important phosphorylation site is present. In vivo, results also showed that electroacupuncture can restore AS of GABRG2. Our results proved that electroacupuncture alleviates angina results by regulating alternative splicing.
