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

Dopamine D2 receptors (DR2) are important regulators in many organs, including cardiac system. Protein kinase C (PKC) activation and translocation is associated with cardioprotection against ischemic post-conditioning (PC); however, the regulatory role of DR2 during this process has been unknown. This study hypothesized that the prevention of cardiomyocyte damage by DR2 activation is associated with PKC translocation to the cell membrane. In the present study, we found that the ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) increased the expressions of DR2 mRNA and protein, which were further enhanced by PC. Bromocriptine (DR2 agonist) up-regulated the PC-induced DR2 expressions, and Haloperidol (DR2 antagonist) reversed the increase of DR2 expressions by Bromocriptine. PC reduced I/R-induced cardiomyocytes damage, apoptosis and myocardial infarct size, and improved cardiac function. Compared with PC, Bromocriptine further enhanced the cardioprotective roles of PC, but Haloperidol canceled the protection effect of Bromocriptine. PC up-regulated PKC-ε translocation in the particulate fraction, which was further strengthened by Bromocriptine but canceled by Haloperidol. In the cytosolic fraction, the changes of the PKC-ε translocation were opposite to the particulate fraction. These findings suggest that DR2 activation provides cardioprotection via promoting PC-induced translocation of PKC-ε.
