Entresto therapy effectively protects heart and lung against transverse aortic constriction induced cardiopulmonary syndrome injury in rat.
Article in American journal of translational research, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 11 papers.
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.
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
This study tested the hypothesis that entresto therapy effectively protected heart and lung against cardiopulmonary syndrome (CPS) caused by transverse aortic constriction (TAC) in rat. Adult-Male SD rats (n = 36) were equally categorized into group 1 [sham-operated control (SC)], group 2 [SC + enalapril (7 mg/kg/day) since day-28 after TAC induction], group 3 [SC + entresto (30 mg/kg/day) since day-14 after TAC induction], group 4 (TAC only), group 5 (TAC + enalapril) and group 6 (TAC + entresto) and euthanized at day 60 after TAC induction. By day 60, the left-ventricular (LV) ejection fraction was significantly lower in group 4 than in other groups and significantly lower in groups 5 and 6 than in groups 1 to 3, whereas the ratios of heart and lung weights to tibial-length as well as the right-ventricular-systolic blood pressure exhibited an opposite pattern among the groups (all P<0.001). The sarcomere-length (SL), LV fibrotic area, cardiomyocyte size, and lung injury score were highest in group 4, lowest in groups 1 to 3 and significantly lower in group 6 than in group 5 (all P<0.0001). The protein expressions of fibrotic (Smad3/TGF-β), apoptotic (mitochondrial-Bax/cleaved-caspase3/PARP) and DNA-damaged (γ-H2AX) markers in lung and LV myocardium as well as oxidative (NOX-1/NOX2/oxidized protein) in LV myocardium exhibited an identical pattern of SL (all P<0.0001). The protein expressions of pressure/volume overload (BNP/MHC-β) mitochondrial-damaged (cytosolic cytochrome-C) of LV myocardium exhibited an identical pattern of SL (all P<0.001). In conclusion, Entresto is non-inferior to enalapril for protecting the heart-lung against CPS.
