Evaluation of Ameliorative Effect of Quercetin and Candesartan in Doxorubicin-Induced Cardiotoxicity.
Article in Vascular health and risk management, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
Background: Several mechanisms have been explored for the anthracycline myocardial toxicity. These are free-radical generation, myocyte apoptosis, lipid peroxidation, mitochondrial deterioration, and direct repression of muscle-specific gene expression. Adriamycin (Doxorubicin) is a potent anti-cancer agent. Adriamycin in prolonged use is fatal and generates free radicals that lead to dose-dependent cardiac toxicity. Objective: The intent of the study was to explore the protective activity of candesartan and quercetin in cardiomyopathy induced by doxorubicin in rats. Methods: To induce cardiac toxicity, rats were intraperitoneally treated with doxorubicin (06 equivalent injections of 2.5 mg/kg, i. p. at 48 hour interval for 02 consecutive weeks to achieve a cumulative dose of 15 mg/kg). Individual and combined oral treatment of candesartan (5 mg/kg/day) and quercetin (10 mg/kg/day) was administered for four weeks. Results: Following cardiomyopathy, heart/body weight ratio (3.526 × 10 Conclusion: The overall result depicts more beneficial and cardioprotective effect of quercetin and candesartan combination as compared to their individual effects in doxorubicin treated animals. Therefore, this combination might be a suitable option to treat the cardiotoxic effect of doxorubicin.
