PPARγ Agonist Pioglitazone Prevents Hypoxia-induced Cardiac Dysfunction by Reprogramming Glucose Metabolism.
Article in International journal of biological sciences, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 papers.
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.
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
The heart relies on various defense mechanisms, including metabolic plasticity, to maintain its normal structure and function under high-altitude hypoxia. Pioglitazone, a peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ (PPARγ), sensitizes insulin, which in turn regulates blood glucose levels. However, its preventive effects against hypoxia-induced cardiac dysfunction at high altitudes have not been reported. In this study, pioglitazone effectively prevented cardiac dysfunction in hypoxic mice for 4 weeks, independent of its effects on insulin sensitivity.
