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

backgroundAlthough recent studies have found that heme oxygenase (HO)-1 plays an important role in myocardiac cell survival, the precise mechanisms occurring during hypoxia/reoxygenation (H/R) injury remain unclear. Therefore, the aim of this study was to investigate the cytoprotective mechanisms of HO-1 against H/R-induced myocardiac cell apoptosis and to explore whether the Akt signaling pathway contributed to the protection provided by HO-1.

methodsCobalt protoporphyrin (CoPP, a pharmacologic inducer of HO-1) was employed to induce the over-expression of HO-1 before H/R in H9c2 cells. Hoechst staining and flow cytometry were used to examine the extent of apoptosis. Furthermore, the effect of HO-1 on Akt, JNK, and the expression of apoptosis-related proteins (c-JUN and Caspase-3) was determined by Western blotting.

resultsThe results showed that over-expressed HO-1 could significantly protect myocardiac cells against H/R-induced apoptosis in H9c2 cells. Furthermore, the protein expression of p‑Akt increased and of p‑JNK decreased in the H/R injury H9c2 cells when treated with CoPP. The apoptosis-related proteins c‑Jun and caspase-3 were both inhibited by over-expression of HO-1. At the same time, retreatment with zinc protoporphyrin (ZnPP, a specific inhibitor of HO-1 enzymatic activity) or LY294002 (an inhibitor of Akt1) reversed the HO-1-induced changes.

conclusionIn summary, our results suggest that HO-1 can decrease H/R-induced myocardiac cell apoptosis; the mechanism may be related to the activation of the Akt signaling pathway and, furthermore, to the inhibition of the JNK/c-Jun/caspase-3 signaling pathway.
