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 present study aimed to investigate the mechanisms underlying the cardioprotective effect of Astragaloside against myocardial injury following myocardial infarction (MI) in a rat model. Male Wistar rats were subjected to left anterior descending branch ligation. The rats that survived 24 h (n=18) were randomly and equally assigned to three groups: MI model group, and 2.5 and 10 mg/kg/day Astragaloside group. A further six rats underwent identical surgical procedures without artery ligation, serving as sham controls. Following 28 days of treatment, the left ventricle was harvested for morphological analysis, and mRNA and protein expression levels of hypoxia inducible factor‑1α (HIF‑1α), Notch1 and Jagged1 were measured. Treatment with Astragaloside attenuated pathological changes in the myocardium. Compared with untreated MI rats, rats treated with Astragaloside exhibited significantly increased mRNA expression levels of HIF‑1α, Notch1 and Jagged1 (all P<0.01). HIF‑1α demonstrated a dose‑dependent effect (P<0.05). Astragaloside (10 mg/kg/day) significantly increased HIF‑1α (P<0.05), Notch1 (P<0.01) and Jagged1 (P<0.01) protein expression levels. Additionally, 2.5 mg/kg Astragaloside significantly increased Jagged1 protein expression levels compared with untreated MI rats. Furthermore, there was a dose‑dependent effect of Astragaloside treatment (P<0.01). These findings suggested that the cardioprotective effects of Astragaloside against myocardial injury following MI may involve upregulation of HIF‑α, Notch1 and Jagged1 signaling, implicating these molecules as therapeutic targets for the treatment of MI.
