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
Coronary heart disease (CHD) is a leading cause of death worldwide, and angiogenesis plays important roles in CHD. Thus, in the present study, the angiogenic efficacy of four common cardiovascular medicines (aspirin, pravastatin, metoprolol and isosorbide mononitrate (ISMN)) was determined by the number and length of zebrafish intersegmental vessels (ISVs) after immersing zebrafish embryos in different medicines. Results showed that ISMN significantly increased the length and number of ISVs. ISMN is a long-acting nitrate ester drug. It has been used as a vasodilator to dilate arteries and veins to reduce the cardiac preload and postload. However, the effect of ISMN on angiogenesis remains unclear. Thus, by in vitro experiments, the angiogenic mechanism of ISMN was evaluated through detecting the viability and proliferation of human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) and the expression of angiogenesis-related genes and miRNAs. Results indicated that ISMN could increase the viability and proliferation of HUVECs by decreasing apoptosis, and elevated the expressions of vedf, kdrl, pdgfr in zebrafish embryos. Furthermore, the expressions of miR-126, miR-130a and miR-210 were also regulated in ISMN-treated HUVECs. In conclusion, ISMN could promote angiogenesis in zebrafish embryos and HUVECs, implying ISMN may be a potential therapeutic in treating angiogenesis-related diseases.
