Multi-faceted potential of sophoridine compound's anti-arrhythmic and antioxidant effects through ROS/CaMKII pathway.

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
Cardiac arrhythmias remain a significant cause of mortality and morbidity, for novel antiarrhythmic therapies. This study states that the first report of sophoridine (SPN), a quinolizidine alkaloid derived from traditional Chinese herbs, shows promise as a potential candidate due to its anti-arrhythmic and antioxidant properties. The study found that cell viability in H9C2 rat cardiomyocytes remained stable even when treated with SPN at a higher dosage of 100 μg/ml. This phenomenon was accompanied by increases in mitochondria-derived reactive oxygen species (ROS) and calcium/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II (CaMKII) signaling, at 50 and 100 μg/ml. Glucose fluctuations regulate ventricular arrhythmias caused by SPN by activating the ROS/CaMKII pathway. Experimental models using zebrafish provided additional evidence supporting the regulatory effects of SPN on heart rate. In addition, the administration of SPN resulted in substantial deregulation of crucial genes involved in heart development (nppa, nppb, tnnt2a) at the transcriptional level in zebrafish. These findings provide insight into the various pharmacological properties of SPN and this opens up new possibilities for anti-arrhythmic treatment strategies.
