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

Therapeutic hypothermia (TH) is a promising cardioprotective treatment for cardiac arrest and acute myocardial infarction, but its cytoprotective mechanisms remain unknown. In this study, we developed a murine cardiomyocyte model of ischemia-reperfusion injury to better determine the mechanisms of TH cardioprotection. We hypothesized that TH manipulates Akt, a survival kinase that mediates mitochondrial protection by modulating reactive oxygen species (ROS) and nitric oxide (NO) generation. Cardiomyocytes, isolated from 1- to 2-day-old C57BL6/J mice, were exposed to 90 min simulated ischemia and 3 h reperfusion. For TH, cells were cooled to 32 degrees C during the last 20 min of ischemia and the first hour of reperfusion. Cell viability was evaluated by propidium iodide and lactate dehydrogenase release. ROS production was measured by 6-carboxy-2',7'-dichlorodihydrofluorescein diacetate and mitochondrial membrane potential (DeltaPsim) by 5,5',6,6'-tetrachloro-1,1',3,3'-tetraethylbenzimidazoly-carbocyanine iodide (JC-1). Phospho (p)-Akt (Thr308), p-Akt (Ser473), and phosphorylated heat shock protein 27 (p-HSP27) (Ser82) were analyzed by Western blot analysis. TH attenuated reperfusion ROS generation, increased NO, maintained DeltaPsim, and decreased cell death [19.3 + or - 3.3% (n = 11) vs. 44.7 + or - 2.7% (n = 10), P < 0.001]. TH also increased p-Akt during ischemia before reperfusion. TH protection and attenuation of ROS were blocked by the inhibition of Akt and NO synthase but not by a cGMP inhibitor. HSP27, a regulator of Akt, also exhibited increased phosphorylation (Ser82) during ischemia with TH. We conclude that TH cardioprotection is mediated by enhanced Akt/HSP27 phosphorylation and enhanced NO generation, resulting in the attenuation of ROS generation and the maintenance of DeltaPsim following ischemia-reperfusion.
