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 farnesoid X receptor (FXR) is implicated in cholesterol and bile acid homeostasis; however, its role following myocardial infarction (MI) has yet to be elucidated. The aim of the present study was to investigate the effects of FXR knockout on left ventricular (LV) remodeling following MI. Coronary arteries of wild type (WT) and FXR‑/‑ mice were permanently occluded to cause MI, and serial echocardiographic and histological tests were conducted. At 4 weeks post‑MI, FXR‑/‑ mice exhibited significantly smaller infarct sizes (34.20±2.58 vs. 44.20±3.19%), improved ejection fraction (47.31±1.08 vs. 37.64±0.75%) and reduced LV chamber dilation compared with WT mice. LV remodeling was significant as early as 7 days post‑MI in FXR‑/‑ compared with WT mice. Histological features associated with enhanced long‑term remodeling and improved functionality, such as increased angiogenesis via detection of CD31 and reduced fibrosis, were observed in the FXR‑/‑ group. Myocyte apoptosis within the infarcted zones appeared significantly reduced by day 7 in FXR‑/‑ mice. In conclusion, the results of the present study suggested that FXR knockout may participate in the preservation of post‑MI cardiac functionality, via reducing fibrosis and chronic apoptosis, and ameliorating ventricular function.
