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
backgroundRapid screening and accurate diagnosis of acute myocardial infarction are critical to reduce the progression of myocardial necrosis, in which proteolytic degradation of myocardial extracellular matrix plays a major role. In previous studies, we found that targeting the extracellular matrix metalloprotease inducer (EMMPRIN) by injecting nanoparticles conjugated with the specific EMMPRIN-binding peptide AP9 significantly improved cardiac function in mice subjected to ischemia/reperfusion.
methodsIn a porcine model of coronary ischemia/reperfusion, we tested the theragnostic effects of administering 0.1 mg/kg gadolinium-containing nanoparticles conjugated with AP9 (NAP9), a synthetic peptide that targets EMMPRIN or a control nanoparticle (NAPSC). Cardiac magnetic resonance assessment of the infarct progression, ventricular function, and nanoparticle distribution was performed the next 7 days. We also measured the infarcted area of the heart and cardiac remodeling at 7 or 21 days after ischemia/reperfusion.
resultsAfter 21 days of ischemia/reperfusion, NAP9 reduced the extension of cardiac necrosis (14.1±9.7 versus 35.5±1.8) and the levels of collagenolytic activity of MMPs (matrix metalloproteases), along with a significant reduction in collagen deposition (7.5±4.5 versus 41.3±20); including the ratio of type I versus III collagen fibers in the necrotic myocardium. In terms of cardiac function, the response to NAP9 administration resulted in a significant improvement of cardiac performance overtime, as evidenced by the left ventricle ejection fraction (64.0±7.8), when compared with those present in the NAPSC group (47.3±4.7). As shown by magnetic resonance imaging, noninvasive molecular imaging of NAP9 enabled us to find a significant reduction in cardiac necrosis, myocardial edema, hemorrhage, and microvascular obstruction, suggesting that NAP9 may reduce myocardial injury and preserve left ventricular function, at least, by preventing the effect of EMMPRIN on extracellular matrix degradation.
conclusionsOur data point towards NAP9 as a promising theragnostic tool in managing acute myocardial infarction, by inhibiting EMMPRIN-induced extracellular matrix degradation and allowing noninvasive visualization of cardiac necrosis progression over time.
