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

Myocardial ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) is common in acute myocardial infarction. Aspirin is commonly prescribed as anti-thrombotic therapy with coronary heart disease (CHD). However, long-term use of aspirin causes severe gastric mucosal damage. Gastrodin is a Chinese natural medicine with anti-inflammatory and anti-oxidative properties. In this study, we investigated the effects of combined therapy with aspirin and gastrodin on the myocardial and gastric mucosal injury in response to myocardial I/R injury and underlying mechanisms using the Sprague-Dawley (SD) rat model. Our results demonstrated that myocardial I/R caused significant cardiac dysfunction and gastric mucosal damage. Administration of aspirin led to significantly reduce myocardial infarction size and myocardial enzyme release, as well as significantly improved cardiac function through exerting anti-inflammatory effects. However, aspirin exacerbated gastric mucosal damage by increasing the levels of inflammatory mediators and endothelin (ET) while reducing prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) levels. The combined treatment with aspirin and gastrodin not only significantly protected gastric mucosa by normalizing the expression levels of the inflammatory factors, ET and PGE2, but also significantly reduced myocardial infarction size and improved cardiac function by inhibiting inflammation in response to I/R. The combination therapy also dramatically down-regulated the levels of pyroptosis-related proteins in the myocardium and gastric mucosa. The combination therapy showed obviously reduced level of thromboxane B2 (TXB2), which was simultaneously accompanied with increased levels of the tissue plasminogen activator (t-PA). This suggested that gastrodin did not inhibit the anti-thrombotic function of aspirin. Accordingly, aspirin in combination with gasrtodin protected the structural and functional integrity of the heart and stomach by suppressing pyroptosis and inflammation. Therefore, combination of aspirin and gastrodin is a promising treatment for cardiac dysfunction and gastric mucosa injury after myocardial I/R.
