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

Doxorubicin (DOX), the anthracycline chemotherapeutic agent, is widely used for the treatment of various cancers. However, its clinical application is compromised by dose-dependent and fatal cardiotoxicity. This study is aimed at investigating the cardioprotective effects of Qishen granule (QSG) and the specific mechanism by which QSG alleviates DOX-induced cardiotoxicity (DIC) and providing an alternative for the treatment of DIC. We first evaluated the cardioprotective effects of QSG in a DIC mouse model, and the obtained results showed that QSG significantly protected against DOX-induced myocardial structural and functional damage, mitochondrial oxidative damage, and apoptosis. Subsequently, after a comprehensive understanding of the specific roles and recent developments of p53-mediated mitochondrial quality control mechanisms in DIC, we investigated whether QSG acted on MDM2 to regulate the activity of p53 and downstream mitophagy and mitochondrial biogenesis. The in vivo results showed that DOX inhibited mitochondrial biogenesis and blocked mitophagy in the mouse myocardium, while QSG reversed these effects. Mechanistically, we combined nutlin-3, which inhibits the binding of p53 and MDM2, with DOX and QSG and evaluated their influence on mitophagy and mitochondrial biogenesis in H9C2 cardiomyocytes. The obtained results showed that both DOX and nutlin-3 substantially inhibited mitophagy and mitochondrial biogenesis and induced mitochondrial oxidative damage and apoptosis, which could be partially recovered by QSG. Importantly, the immunoprecipitation results showed that QSG promoted the binding of MDM2 to p53, thus decreasing the level of p53 protein and the binding of p53 to Parkin. Collectively, QSG could promote the degradation of p53 by enhancing the binding of MDM2 to the p53 protein, resulting in the reduced binding of p53 to the Parkin protein, thus improving Parkin-mediated mitophagy. Increased degradation of p53 protein by QSG simultaneously enhanced mitochondrial biogenesis mediated by PGC-1
