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

Myocardial ischemia triggers an inflammatory reaction and oxidative stress that increases apoptosis of myocardiocytes. It has been evidenced that tanshinone‑IIA (Tan‑IIA) protects against heart failure post‑myocardial infarction via inhibition of the apoptotic pathway. The purpose of the present study was to investigate the therapeutic effect of Tan‑IIA in a rat model of myocardial ischemia, and explore the possible mechanism of Tan‑IIA in myocardiocytes. The rat model of myocardial ischemia was established by left anterior descending coronary artery and rats received treatment with either Tan‑IIA (10 mg/kg) or PBS for 20 days continuously. The cardiac function in the experimental rat model was detected using the Sequoia 512 echocardiography system on day 21. The cell viability of myocardiocytes was assessed by CCK‑8 assay. Apoptosis of myocardiocytes and myocardial tissue was evaluated by TUNEL assay. The infarct size of the myocardial ischemia rat was determined through 2,3,5‑triphenyltetrazolium chloride (TTC) and Evan blue double staining assay. The expression levels of apoptotic factors were assessed by immunohistochemistry, western blotting and immunofluorescence. The results demonstrated that Tan‑IIA reduced myocardial infarct size and improved the myocardial function in myocardial ischemia rats. Compared with PBS, Tan‑IIA treatment decreased myocardial tissue apoptosis and the expression levels of caspase‑3, Cyto
