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

introductionAtrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common type of arrhythmia. Atrial remodeling is a major factor to the AF substrate. The purpose of the study is to explore whether aliskiren (ALS) has a cardioprotective effect and its potential molecular mechanisms on atrial remodeling.

methodsIn acute experiments, dogs were randomly assigned to Sham, Paced and Paced+aliskiren (10 mg kg

resultsThe electrophysiological changes were observed after 2-h pacing. The AERP shortened with increased AFi and ADT, which was attenuated by ALS (P < 0.05). After pacing for 2 weeks, oxidative stress and inflammation markers in the Paced group were significantly higher than those in the Sham group (P < 0.01) and were reduced by ALS treatment (P < 0.01). The reduced level of antioxidant enzymes caused by RAP was also found to be elevated in ALS-treated group (P < 0.01). The results of pathology and echocardiography showed that RAP can cause atrial enlargement, fibrosis (P < 0.01), and were attenuated in ALS treatment group. The PI3K/Akt signaling pathway were downregulated induced by RAP. ALS could upregulate the PI3K/Akt pathway expression (P < 0.05). Furthermore, the cardioprotective effects in structural remodeling of ALS were suppressed by WM.

conclusionsALS may offer cardioprotection in RAP-induced atrial remodeling, which may partly be ascribed to its anti-inflammatory and anti-oxidative stress action and the regulation of PI3K/Akt signaling pathway.
