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

backgroundDoxorubicin (Dox) is one of the most frequently prescribed anti-cancer drugs. However, clinical application with Dox is limited due to its potentially fatal cumulative cardiotoxicity. N-

methodsH9c2 cells were treated with Dox (2.5 µM) in the presence of alk-A and alk-B (10, 20, and 40 µM) and incubated for 24 h.

resultsIt was shown that pretreatment of the H9c2 cells with alk-A and alk-B significantly reduced Dox-induced apoptosis. Alk-A and alk-B both inhibited reactive oxygen species (ROS) production and suppressed cleaved-caspase-3 protein expression and the activation of JNK (Jun N-terminal kinases), as well as increasing ATP levels, favoring mitochondrial mitofusin protein expression, and relieving damage to mitochondrial DNA.

conclusionsThese results suggest that alk-A and alk-B can inhibit Dox-induced apoptosis in H9C2 cardiac muscle cells via inhibition of cell apoptosis and improvement of mitochondrial function, while alk-B showed more protection. Alk-B could be a potential candidate agent for protecting against cardiotoxicity in Dox-exposed patients.
