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

The roles of hydrogen sulfide (H(2)S) and endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress in doxorubicin (DOX)-induced cardiotoxicity are still unclear. This study aimed to dissect the hypothesis that H(2)S could protect H9c2 cells against DOX-induced cardiotoxicity by inhibiting ER stress. Our results showed that exposure of H9c2 cells to DOX significantly inhibited the expression and activity of cystathionine-γ-lyase (CSE), a synthetase of H(2)S, accompanied by the decreased cell viability and the increased reactive oxygen species (ROS) accumulation. In addition, exposure of cells to H(2)O(2) (an exogenous ROS) mimicked the inhibitory effect of DOX on the expression and activity of CSE. Pretreatment with N-acetyl-L: -cysteine (NAC) (a ROS scavenger) attenuated intracellular ROS accumulation, cytotoxicity, and the inhibition of expression and activity of CSE induced by DOX. Notably, the ER stress-related proteins, including glucose-regulated protein 78 (GRP78) and C/EBP homologous protein (CHOP) were obviously upregulated in DOX-treated H9c2 cells. Pretreatment with sodium hydrosulfide (NaHS, a H(2)S donor) before DOX exposure markedly suppressed DOX-induced overexpressions of GRP78 and CHOP, cytotoxicity and oxidative stress. In conclusion, we have demonstrated that ROS-mediated inhibition of CSE is involved in DOX-induced cytotoxicity in H9c2 cells, and that exogenous H(2)S can confer protection against DOX-induced cardiotoxicity partly through inhibition of ER stress.
