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

Schisandrin B (Sch B), an active composition isolated from the fruit of Schisandra chinensis, has been proved to possess antiinflammatory, antioxidant and anti-endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress effects in many rodent tissues. However, the exact mechanism of cardioprotective effect of Sch B still needs more study. Here, we detected the effects of Sch B on myocardial ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury rats. I/R injury model in this study was established by left anterior descending coronary artery ligation for 40 min followed by 1 h of reperfusion. Male healthy rats were randomly divided into five groups: the sham, I/R, Sch B (20 mg/kg) + I/R, and Sch B (40 mg/kg) + I/R, Sch B (80 mg/kg) + I/R, with 10 rats in each group. We showed that Sch B treatment significantly protected against myocardial I/R injury, as demonstrated by the decrease in the percentage of infarct formation assessed by 2,3,5-triphenyl tetrazolium chloride (TTC) staining in representative heart tissue slices, comparing with the I/R control group. The levels of creatine kinase (CK), lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), malondialdehyde (MDA), and total superoxide dismutase (T-SOD) were tested. The ER stress-related proteins such as C/EBP homologous protein (CHOP), activating transcription factor 6 (ATF6), and (PKR)-like ER kinase (PERK) were further measured by western blot, and their messenger RNA levels were measured by real-time PCR. The apoptosis of heart tissue cells was also tested through the expressions of caspase-9, caspase-3, Bcl-2, and Bax proteins. Collectively, these results revealed that Sch B exerts protection role on myocardial I/R injury through decreasing oxidative reaction, suppressing ATF6 and PERK pathway, and attenuating ER stress-induced apoptosis.
