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 cardiovascular toxicity of anticancer drugs promotes the development of cardiovascular diseases. Therefore, cardiovascular toxicity is an important safety issue that must be considered when developing medications and therapeutic applications to treat cancer. Among anticancer drugs, members of the anthracycline family, such as doxorubicin, daunorubicin and mitoxantrone, are known to cause cardiotoxicity and even heart failure. Using human-induced pluripotent stem cell-derived cardiomyocytes in combination with "Omic" technologies, we identified several cardiotoxicity mechanisms and signal transduction pathways. Moreover, these drugs acted as cardiovascular toxicants through a syndrome of mechanisms, including epigenetic ones. Herein, we discuss the main cardiovascular toxicity mechanisms, with an emphasis on those associated with reactive oxygen species and mitochondria that contribute to cardiotoxic epigenetic modifications. We also discuss how to mitigate the cardiotoxic effects of anticancer drugs using available pharmaceutical "weapons."
