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

backgroundIt is well established that physical exercise continues to be one of the most valuable forms of non-pharmacological therapy against diabetes mellitus; however, the precise mechanism remains unknown. The aim of this study was to investigate the cardioprotective effect of voluntary exercise in the Goto-Kakizaki type 2 diabetic rat heart against ischemia-reperfusion injury and to clarify its biochemical background, focusing on the nitric oxide synthase/heme oxygenase system.

methodsOne group of male Goto-Kakizaki rats were allowed voluntary exercise, whereas others were kept sedentary for 6 weeks. At the end of the 6th week the hearts were isolated from both groups and subjected to 45-min coronary occlusion followed by 120-min reperfusion. The infarct size was evaluated by means of triphenyltetrazolium chloride staining. The cardiac and aortic nitric oxide synthase/heme oxygenase activities, plasma leptin and glucose concentrations were also assessed.

resultsThe sedentary state prior to the ischemia-reperfusion injury was associated with a significantly higher infarct size (24.56 ± 2.21 vs. 16.66 ± 1.87 %) as compared with that in the voluntary wheel-running group. Exercise altered the constitutive nitric oxide synthase activity; an enhancement was evident in the cardiac (42.5 ± 2.72 vs. 75.6 ± 13.34 pmol/min/mg protein) and aortic tissues (382.5 ± 66.57 vs. 576.9 ± 63.16 pmol/min/mg protein). Exercise lead to a higher heme oxygenase activity (0.68 ± 0.08 vs. 0.92 ± 0.04 nmol bilirubin/h/mg protein) in the diabetic rat hearts. Exercise was associated with lower plasma leptin (192.23 ± 7.22 vs. 169.65 ± 4.6 ng/L) and blood glucose (19.61 ± 0.76 vs. 14.58 ± 0.88 mmol/L) levels.

conclusionsThese results indicate the beneficial role of exercise against myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury in diabetic rats. These observations in experimental diabetes suggest that the cytoprotective mechanism of exercise involves modulation of the nitric oxide synthase/heme oxygenase system and metabolic parameters that may be responsible for cardioprotection.
