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

Oxidative stress and mitochondrial dysfunction are involved in the mechanisms of cardiac toxicity induced by aluminum phosphide (AlP). AlP-induced cardiotoxicity leads to cardiomyocyte death, cardiomyopathy, cardiac dysfunction, and eventually severe heart failure and death. Importantly, protecting cardiomyocytes from death resulting from AlP is vital for improving survival. It has been reported that flavonoids such as myricetin (Myr) act as modifiers of mitochondrial function and prevent mitochondrial damage resulting from many insults and subsequent cell dysfunction. In this study, the ameliorative effect of Myr, as an important antioxidant and mitochondrial protective agent, was investigated in cardiomyocytes and mitochondria isolated from rat heart against AlP-induced toxicity, oxidative stress, and mitochondrial dysfunction. Treatment of AlP (20 μg/ml) significantly increased cytotoxicity; reduced glutathione (GSH) depletion, cellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) formation, malondialdehyde (MDA) level, ATP depletion, caspase-3 activation, mitochondrial membrane potential (ΔΨm) collapse, and lysosomal dysfunction; and decreased the activities of superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT), and glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px) in intact cardiomyocytes. Also, treatment of AlP (20 μg/ml) significantly increased mitochondrial dysfunction and swelling in isolated mitochondria. Myr (80 µM) appeared to ameliorate AlP-induced cytotoxicity in isolated cardiomyocytes; significantly lessened the AlP-stimulated intracellular ROS and MDA production and depletion of GSH; and increased the activities of SOD, CAT, and GSH-Px. Furthermore, Myr (40 and 80 µM) lowered AlP-induced lysosomal/mitochondrial dysfunction, ATP depletion, and caspase-3 activation. In the light of these findings, we concluded that Myr through antioxidant potential and inhibition of mitochondrial permeability transition (MPT) pore exerted an ameliorative role in AlP-induced toxicity in isolated cardiomyocytes and mitochondria, and it would be valuable to examine its
