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

Activation of protein kinase C (PKC) is a critical intracellular signaling triggered by ischemic preconditioning (IPC), but the precise mechanisms underlying the actions of PKC in IPC-mediated cardioprotection remain unclear. Here, we investigated the role of PKC activation on the antioxidant activity by IPC in rabbit hearts. Isolated rabbit hearts were subjected to 60 min of global ischemia by cold cardioplegic arrest (4 °C) and 60 min of reperfusion (37 °C). IPC was induced by three cycles of 2-min ischemia following 3 min of reperfusion (37 °C) before cardioplegic arrest. IPC resulted in a better recovery of mechanical function, increased tissue reduced glutathione-to-oxidized glutathione ratio (GSH/GSSG), superoxide dismutase and catalase content, and decreased tissue malondialdehyde (MDA) content compared to control hearts subjected to 60 min of cardioplegic ischemia and 60 min of reperfusion. IPC also significantly induced activation of nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) and the inductions of antioxidant genes heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) and manganese superoxide dismutase (MnSOD). Injection of phorbol 12-myristate 13 acetate, an activator of PKC, before cardioplegic ischemia induced translocation of PKC-δ and -ε isoforms to membrane fraction, nuclear accumulation of Nrf2, and conferred cardioprotection similar to IPC. Polymyxin B, an inhibitor of PKC, blocked the membrane translocation of PKC-δ and -ε during IPC, inhibited Nrf2 nuclear accumulation, and significantly diminished the IPC-induced cardioprotection when administrated before IPC. These results indicate that the activation of PKC induces the translocation of Nrf2 and the enhancement of endogenous antioxidant defenses in the IPC hearts and suggest that PKC may target Nrf2 to confer cardioprotection.
