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

aimsThis study aims to explore the pathogenesis of myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury and the treatment method.

methodsMyocardial Ischemia-reperfusion rat model was established in this study. They were divided into three groups: sham operation (SO) group, IRI control (C) group and IRI with propofol (A) group (n = 9). Myocardial infarct size was compared with HE staining method. TUNEL assay was used to detect cell apoptosis. Changes in the expression of iNOS were detected using real-time PCR and Western blotting methods.

resultsMyocardial infarct size of control group and propofol group was 53.03 ± 8.90% and 34.73 ± 7.20% respectively, there were significant differences between them (P < 0.01). Apoptotic index of two groups was 0.21 ± 0.02 and 0.31 ± 0.05, with statistical significance (P < 0.05). The expression levels of iNOS in propofol group reduced significantly (P < 0.05).

conclusionThe levels of iNOS increase in IRI rats, suggesting that the severity of myocardial failure may be correlated with iNOS; propofol can specifically inhibit iNOS and thus protect the myocardial function.
