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

objectiveThe aim of this study was to explore the effect of nicorandil (NCR) combined with trimetazidine (TMZ) on miR-223-3p and NRF2 expression in patients with coronary heart disease (CHD).

methodsThis study included 71 CHD patients admitted to our hospital from February 2017 to March 2019, including 33 cases in the control group (CG) treated with NCR and 38 cases in the research group (RG) treated with TMZ combined with NCR. Improvement in clinical efficacy after treatment was observed in the two groups; serum miR-223-3p and NRF2 levels pre- and post-treatment were compared, and the predictive value of the two for curative effect was analyzed. In addition, ST segment depression frequency and total duration, pre- and post-treatment cardiac function levels and blood lipid levels were recorded and compared.

resultsRG had statistically more markedly effective cases and notably lower serum miR-223-3p and NRF2 expression than CG after treatment. Through receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis, it was found that the area under curves (AUCs) of miR-223-3p and NRF2 were 0.716 and 0.712 respectively. The post-treatment ST segment depression frequency and duration were lower in RG than in CG (P<0.05). Cardiac function and blood lipid levels were significantly better in RG as compared to those in CG after treatment (P<0.05).

conclusionsNCR combined with TMZ is more effective in patients with CHD, and miR-223-3p and NRF2 can be predictors of clinical efficacy.
