Article in Evidence-based complementary and alternative medicine : eCAM, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 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
backgroundRadiation-induced heart damage is considered to be a progressive process of fibrosis. Emerging evidence has indicated that the Smads and matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs)/tissue inhibitors of MMPs (TIMP) may be involved in radiation-induced cardiac fibrosis (RICF) by regulating the activation of TGF-
methodsPrecardiac region of rats was irradiated with 25 Gy X-rays, and their myocardial pathology scores in terms of injury and collagen volume fraction (CVF) and the expression levels of fibrotic molecules were detected.
resultsThe pathology scores and CVF in myocardial tissue increased after irradiation, and the expression of
