Cholecystokinin Expression in the Development of Myocardial Hypertrophy.
Article in Scanning, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
backgroundExpression of cholecystokinin is found in myocardial tissues as a gastrointestinal hormone and may be involved in cardiovascular regulation. However, it is unclear whether there is an increase in cholecystokinin expression in myocardial hypertrophy progression induced by abdominal aortic constriction. The study is aimed at exploring the relationship between cholecystokinin expression and myocardial hypertrophy.
methodsWe randomly divided the 70 Sprague-Dawley rats into two groups: the sham operation group and the abdominal aortic constriction group. The hearts of rats were measured by echocardiography, and myocardial tissues and blood were collected at 4 weeks, 8 weeks, and 12 weeks after surgery. Morphological changes were assessed by microscopy. The cholecystokinin expression was evaluated by immunochemistry, Western blotting, quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction, and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay.
resultsThe relative protein levels of cholecystokinin were significantly increased in the abdominal aortic constriction groups compared with the corresponding sham operation groups at 8 weeks and 12 weeks. The cholecystokinin mRNA in the abdominal aortic constriction groups was significantly higher than the time-matched sham operation groups. Changes in the left ventricular wall thickness were positively correlated with the relative protein levels of cholecystokinin and the mRNA of cholecystokinin.
conclusionsThe development of myocardial hypertrophy can affect the cholecystokinin expression of myocardial tissues.
