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

Background: The chemotherapeutic agent doxorubicin has the side effect of inducing injury to cardiomyocytes. Ferroptosis plays an essential role in the onset and progression of cardiac injury. Ophiopogonin D is considered the active component of the Chinese herbal medicine Mai Dong, which is commonly used for the treatment of cardiovascular diseases. This study investigates the impact of ophiopogonin D on doxorubicin-induced cardiomyocyte ferroptosis by focusing on the β-catenin/GPX4 signaling pathway. Methods: Mice were injected intraperitoneally with doxorubicin (10 mg/kg) to create a model of cardiotoxicity. Cardiomyocytes exposed to doxorubicin (1 μM) were treated with ophiopogonin D (5 μM). Western blotting was used to detect β-catenin, FTH1, and GPX4. Malondialdehyde (MDA), glutathione (GSH), and Fe Results: Doxorubicin inhibited β-catenin activity and GPX4 expression, promoting cardiomyocyte ferroptosis Conclusion: Ophiopogonin D inhibits cardiomyocyte ferroptosis induced by doxorubicin by restoring the β-catenin/GPX4 signaling pathway.
