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 infarction (MI) is a common cardiovascular disease with high morbidity and mortality. In this study, we explored the role of interferon-induced protein with tetratricopeptide repeats 3 (IFIT3) in MI. MI was induced by ligation of the left anterior descending coronary artery. Lentivirus-mediated RNA interference of IFIT3 expression was performed by tail vein injection 72 h before MI modeling. Cardiac injury indexes and inflammatory response were examined 3 days after MI. Cardiac function indexes, infarct size, and cardiac fibrosis were assessed 4 weeks after MI. IFIT3 expression was upregulated in myocardial tissues at both 3 days and 4 weeks after MI. Knockdown of IFIT3 significantly relieved the myocardial injury, as evidenced by the decrease in serum levels of cTnI and CK-MB. In addition, IFIT3 knockdown significantly reduced the number of CD68
