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

Objectives: Doxorubicin (Dox), a chemotherapeutic anthracycline agent for the treatment of a variety of malignancies, has a limitation in clinical application for dose-dependent cardiotoxicity. The purpose of this study was to explore the relationship between the composition/function of the gut microbiota and Dox-induced cardiotoxicity (DIC). Methods: C57BL/6J mice were injected intraperitoneally with 15 mg/kg of Dox, with or without antibiotics (Abs) administration. The M-mode echocardiograms were performed to assess cardiac function. The histopathological analysis was conducted by H&E staining and TUNEL kit assay. The serum levels of creatine kinase (CK), CK-MB (CK-MB), lactic dehydrogenase (LDH), and cardiac troponin T (cTnT) were analyzed by an automatic biochemical analyzer. 16S rRNA gene and metagenomic sequencing of fecal samples were used to explore the gut microbiota composition and function. Key Findings: Dox caused left ventricular (LV) dilation and reduced LV contractility. The levels of cardiomyocyte apoptosis and myocardial enzymes were elevated in Dox-treated mice compared with the control (Con) group. 16S rRNA gene sequencing results revealed significant differences in microbial composition between the two groups. In the Dox group, the relative abundances of Conclusions: The study here shows that composition imbalance and functional changes of the gut microbiota can be one of the etiological mechanisms underlying DIC. The gut microbiota may serve as new targets for the treatment of cardiotoxicity and cardiovascular diseases.
