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

Coronary atherosclerosis (CA) is a chronic and evolving inflammatory disease characterized by the build-up of atherosclerotic plaque in the wall of coronary arteries. Guanxinning tablet (GXNT) is a novel Chinese medicine formula, which has been clinically used to treat coronary heart disease for many years. However, the potential mechanism for treating CA remains unclear. Thus, the study was aimed at investigating the therapeutic effect of GXNT on CA and further explore the underlying mechanisms from the perspective of gut microbiota. Following the establishment of a CA model in Tibetan minipigs, GXNT was orally administrated. We simultaneously detected blood lipid levels, observed ventricular function using ultrasound examination, measured platelet aggregation, and checked changes in inflammatory factors, oxidative stress factors, and vascular endothelial injury-related indexes applying ELISA assays. Histopathological changes of coronary artery tissue were subsequently evaluated using Sudan IV staining, HE staining, Oil red "O" staining, and immunohistochemistry assays. Finally, alterations of the gut microbiota and microbial metabolites were detected using metagenomic sequencing and targeted metabolomics, respectively. The results have suggested that GXNT could regulate dyslipidemia, improve heart function, and inhibit the levels of ox-LDL, CRP, TNF-
