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

Inflammation and myocardial weakness, two major hallmarks of chronic viral myocarditis (VMC), often lead to dilated cardiomyopathy or chronic heart failure. It has been reported that indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase-1 (IDO1) may play a pathogenic role in the progression of inflammatory diseases. Hence, the study is set out to investigate the potential role of IDO1 in chronic VMC by establishing a mouse model of VMC by intraperitoneally injected with coxsackievirus B3 (CVB3). After model establishment, the expression of IDO1 was determined by RT-qPCR and Western blot analysis. IDO1 was identified as an up-regulated gene in CVB3-induced VMC. Then, in order to elucidate the potential role of IDO1 in VMC, macrophages were isolated and treated with the overexpression plasmid of IDO1 or IDO1 inhibitor (1-MT). After that, these transfected macrophages were co-cultured with normal cardiomyocytes, followed by measurement of inflammatory factors and evaluation of cardiomyocyte injury. The overexpression of IDO1 was observed to significantly enhance the levels of interleukin (IL)-6, IL-1β and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), as well as lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) activity and malondialdehyde (MDA) content. By contrast, the treatment of 1-MT in macrophages reversed the promoting effects of IDO1 on cardiomyocyte injury. Co-culture experiment showed that overexpressed IDO1 impaired cardiomyocyte, which was alleviated upon treatment of 1-MT. Taken together, the key findings of the present study provide evidence that 1-MT-mediated IDO1 suppression could potentially reduce inflammatory response in macrophages and consequently ameliorate cardiomyocyte injury in mice with VMC.
