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) is an anticancer drug widely used in tumor chemotherapy, but it has the side-effect of cardiotoxicity, which is closely related to mitochondrial damage. Mitochondrial dynamics is a quality control mechanism that usually helps to maintain a healthy mitochondrial pool. Trophoblast stem cell-derived exosomes (TSC-Exos) have been shown to protect cardiomyocytes from DOX-induced cardiotoxicity. To explore whether the cardioprotective role is mediated by the regulation of mitochondrial dynamic mechanism, TSC-Exos were isolated from human trophoblast stem cells by ultracentrifugation and characterized by Western blot and transmission electron microscopy. Cellular experiments of H9c2 cardiomyocytes co-cultured with Dox and TSC-Exos were performed in vitro to determine the levels of reactive oxygen species generation and apoptosis level. An animal model of heart failure was established by intraperitoneal injection of Dox in vivo, therapy mice were received additional intracardiac injection of TSC-Exos, then, the cardiac function, cardiomyocyte apoptosis and mitochondrial fragmentation were ameliorated. Histology assays suggest that Dox caused an increased tendency of mitochondrial fission, which was manifested by a decrease in the average size of mitochondria. By receiving TSC-Exos treatment, this effect was eliminated. In summary, these results suggest that TSC-Exos alleviate DOX-induced cardiotoxicity through antiapoptotic effect and improving mitochondrial fusion with an increase in Mfn2 expression. This study is the first to provide a potential new treatment scheme for the treatment of heart failure from the perspective of the relationship between TSC-Exos and mitochondrial dynamics.
