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

The blood flow restoration of ischemic tissues causes myocardial injury. Dexmedetomidine (Dex) protects multi-organs against ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury. This study investigated the protective mechanism of Dex post-treatment in myocardial I/R injury. The rat model of myocardial I/R was established. The effects of Dex post-treatment on cardiac function and autophagy flow were observed. Dex attenuated myocardial I/R injury and reduced I/R-induced autophagy in rats. Dex weakened the interactions between Beclin1 and Vps34 and Beclin1 and Atg14L, thus downregulating Vps34 kinase activity. In vitro, the cardiomyocytes subjected to oxygen glucose deprivation/reoxygenation were treated with Dex and PI3K inhibitor LY294002. LY294002 attenuated the myocardial protective effect of DEX, indicating that Dex protected against cardiac I/R by activating the PI3K/Akt pathway. In conclusion, Dex upregulated the phosphorylation of Beclin1 at S295 site by activating the PI3K/Akt pathway and reduced the interactions of Atg14L-Beclin1-Vps34 complex, thus inhibiting autophagy and protecting against myocardial I/R injury.
