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

backgroundHeat shock (HS) and mild electrical stimulation (MES) induce the expression of heat shock protein 72 (HSP72), which suppresses endoplasmic reticulum stress, oxidative stress, and c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) activity, thereby ameliorating pathophysiologic abnormalities associated with diabetes.

aimsThis study aims to investigate whether HS + MES influences the development of atherosclerosis.

methodsHSP72

resultsIn HSP72

conclusionsCollectively, these findings indicate that induction of HSP72 expression by HS + MES prevents atherogenesis independently of glucose homeostasis.
