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

Autophagy in myocardium has been thought to be cardioprotective, but its extent after transient or prolonged myocardial ischemia remains unclear. Accordingly, we characterized its magnitude in myocardium of murine hearts subjected to ischemia with or without reperfusion. Ten-week-old transgenic GFP-LC3 mice and C57Bl6 mice were subjected to coronary ligation for 1 or 4 h followed by 24 h of reperfusion (1HTL, 4HTL) or to 24 h of persistent ligation (24HPL). Their hearts were analyzed by fluorescence microscopy, electron microscopy, and by Western blotting. Fluorescent GFP-LC3 dots indicative of autophagy were absent in infarct zones and reduced markedly in the peri-infarct zones compared with dots in sham controls (p ≤ 0.05). The LC3-II/LC3-I ratio indicative of autophagy did not increase in LV homogenates from hearts following ischemia. Phosphorylation of ribosomal protein S6 increased in LV homogenates in hearts from mice subjected to 4HTL and 24HPL (p ≤ 0.05). Virtually no autophagic cells recognizable by electron microscopy were evident in infarct or peri-infarct zones. Autophagy is virtually absent within 24 h in the center of zones of infarction and is decreased significantly in the peri-infarct zones compared with that in normal hearts.
