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

Trimetazidine (TMZ) improves endothelial dysfunction. However, its beneficial effect on endothelial miRNAs is unexplored in diabetes. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the effects of TMZ on plasma miRNA-24 and miRNA-126, dyslipidemia, inflammation, and blood pressure in the diabetic rats. Adult male Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly assigned into four groups (250 ± 20 g, n = 8): a control (C), an untreated diabetic (D), a diabetic group administrated with TMZ at 10 mg/kg (T10), and a diabetic group administrated with TMZ at 30 mg/kg (T30) for eight weeks. Diabetes was induced by injection of alloxan (120 mg/kg). The plasma levels of miR-24, miR-126, lipid profile, malondialdehyde (MDA), tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α) and interleukin-6 (IL-6), blood glucose, body weight and systolic blood pressure were measured. The diabetic rats showed decreased plasma miR-24, HDL-c (
