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

Diabetic cardiovascular autonomic neuropathy (DCAN) is a common complication of diabetes mellitus which brings about high mortality, high morbidity, and large economic burden to the society. Compensatory tachycardia after myocardial ischemia caused by DCAN can increase myocardial injury and result in more damage to the cardiac function. The inflammation induced by hyperglycemia can increase P2X7 receptor expression in the superior cervical ganglion (SCG), resulting in nerve damage. It is proved that inhibiting the expression of P2X7 receptor at the superior cervical ganglion can ameliorate the nociceptive signaling dysregulation induced by DCAN. However, the effective drug used for decreasing P2X7 receptor expression has not been found. Schisandrin B is a traditional Chinese medicine, which has anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects. Whether Schisandrin B can decrease the expression of P2X7 receptor in diabetic rats to protect the cardiovascular system was investigated in this study. After diabetic model rats were made, Schisandrin B and shRNA of P2X7 receptor were given to different groups to verify the impact of Schisandrin B on the expression of P2X7 receptor. Pathological blood pressure, heart rate, heart rate variability, and sympathetic nerve discharge were ameliorated after administration of Schisandrin B. Moreover, the upregulated protein level of P2X7 receptor, NLRP3 inflammasomes, and interleukin-1
