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

The aim of this study was to investigate the protective effects and underlying anti-oxidative molecular mechanism of lipoxin A4 (LA4) in rats with ischemia/reperfusion (I/R)-injured skeletal muscle. A rat model of I/R-injured skeletal muscle was obtained by subjecting rats to a 3-h ligation of the right femoral artery followed by 3 h of reperfusion. Treatment with LA4 significantly ameliorated histological damage scores in I/R-injured skeletal muscle. LA4 treatment resulted in remarkable decreases in the wet weight/dry weight ratio (W/D ratio), inflammatory response, oxidative stress, and cell apoptosis. In addition, treatment with LA4 was accompanied by a prominently enhanced nuclear accumulation of nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) and expression of heme oxygenase 1 (HO-1) in the I/R-injured skeletal muscle. However, these protective effects were reversed by zinc protoporphyrin-IX (ZnPP), a specific HO-1 inhibitor. Our study shows that LA4 may have the potential as a therapeutic agent for I/R-injured muscle tissue via activation of the Nrf2/HO-1 signaling pathway.
