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: Materials: Based on the enhanced simplex-centroid mixture design using Minitab 19 software, 19 proportions of salvianolic acid B (Sal-B), butein (But), tanshinone IIA (Tan IIA), and formononetin (For) were applied to an oxygen-glucose deprivation (OGD)-treated human cardiac microvascular endothelial cells (HCMVECs)-AC16 cells co-culture system. The proportions were independent variables, and viability, lactic acid, vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) of HCMVECs, and cardiac troponin I (cTnI) of AC16 cells were dependent variables. Regression equations were fitted and multi-objective optimization was performed to determine the OP, and experimental verification was conducted. Results: Stepwise regression analysis yielded regression equations for the four response indicators. The Conclusion: This study preliminarily clarifies the OP composed of Sal-B, But, Tan IIA, and For that improves glycolysis and angiogenesis-related indicators and exerts cardioprotective effects, providing a new strategy for studies on active component formulations of traditional Chinese medicines. It is expected to lay a methodological foundation for the clinical application of SM-DO and the development of new drugs.
