Nicorandil effects on platelet function, Hs-CRP, MMP-9 and myocardial antioxidation in patients with unstable angina.
Article in Experimental and therapeutic medicine, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Nicorandil effects on platelet activation and myocardial antioxidant function in patients with unstable angina were studied. A total of 157 patients with unstable angina in the First People's Hospital of Foshan were selected and divided into experimental and control group. Patients in experimental group were treated with conventional drugs and nicorandil (15 min/day), t.i.d., for 21 days as one course of treatment, while those in control group were treated with conventional drugs. After treatment, serum indexes were detected and compared between the two groups of patients. Compared with that in control group, the platelet function of patients in the experimental group was significantly improved, and there was a statistically significant difference (P<0.05). Serum anti-oxidation factors in both groups were increased after treatment, and they were increased more significantly in experimental group (P<0.05). Serum inflammatory factors, high-sensitivity C-reactive protein and matrix metalloproteinase-9, also declined significantly in the experimental group. Nicorandil reduces inflammatory response and promotes stability of myocardial function in the treatment of unstable angina.
