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.
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
Hypertrophy of myocytes has been implicated in cardiac dysfunctions affecting wall stress and patterns of gene expression. However, molecular targets potentially preventing cardiac hypertrophy have not been fully elucidated. In the present study, we demonstrate that upregulation of catalase by peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor δ (PPARδ) is involved in the anti-hypertrophic activity of PPARδ in angiotensin II (Ang II)-treated H9c2 cardiomyocytes. Activation of PPARδ by a specific ligand GW501516 significantly inhibited Ang II-induced hypertrophy and the generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in H9c2 cardiomyocytes. These effects of GW501516 were almost completely abolished in cells stably expressing small hairpin (sh)RNA targeting PPARδ, indicating that PPARδ mediates these effects. Significant concentration and time-dependent increases in catalase at both mRNA and protein levels were observed in GW501516-treated H9c2 cardiomyocytes. In addition, GW501516-activated PPARδ significantly enhanced catalase promoter activity and protein expression, even in the presence of Ang II. GW501516-activated PPARδ also inhibited the expression of atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) and B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP), which are both marker proteins for hypertrophy. The effects of GW501516 on the expression of ANP and BNP were reversed by 3-amino-1,2,4-triazole (3-AT), a catalase inhibitor. Inhibition or downregulation of catalase by 3-AT or small interfering (si)RNA, respectively, abrogated the effects of PPARδ on Ang II-induced hypertrophy and ROS generation, indicating that these effects of PPARδ are mediated through catalase induction. Furthermore, GW501516-activated PPARδ exerted catalase-dependent inhibitory effects on Ang II-induced hypertrophy by blocking p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase. Taken together, these results indicate that the anti-hypertrophic activity of PPARδ may be achieved, at least in part, by sequestering ROS through fine-tuning the expression of catalase in cardiomyocytes.
