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

Increase of myocardial oxidative stress is closely related to the occurrence and development of cardiac hypertrophy. Cordycepin, also known as 3'-deoxyadenosine, is a natural bioactive substance extracted from Cordyceps militaris (which is widely cultivated for commercial use in functional foods and medicine). Since cordycepin suppresses oxidative stress both in vitro and in vivo, we hypothesized that cordycepin would inhibit cardiac hypertrophy by blocking oxidative stress-dependent related signalling. In our study, a mouse model of cardiac hypertrophy was induced by aortic banding (AB) surgery. Mice were intraperitoneally injected with cordycepin (20 mg/kg/d) or the same volume of vehicle 3 days after-surgery for 4 weeks. Our data demonstrated that cordycepin prevented cardiac hypertrophy induced by AB, as assessed by haemodynamic parameters analysis and echocardiographic, histological and molecular analyses. Oxidative stress was estimated by detecting superoxide generation, superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity and malondialdehyde levels, and by detecting the protein levels of gp91
