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
objectiveApoptosis and autophagy are significant factors of sepsis induced myocardial injury (SIMI). XBJ improves SIMI by PI3K/AKT/mTOR pathway. Present study is devised to explore the protective mechanism of XBJ in continuous treatment of SIMI caused by CLP.
methodsRat survival was first recorded within 7 days. Rats were randomly assigned to three groups: Sham group, CLP group, and XBJ group. The animals in each group were divided into 12 h group, 1 d, 2 d, 3 d and 5 d according to the administration time of 12 hours, 1 day, 2 days, 3 days or 5 days, respectively. Echocardiography, myocardial injury markers and H&E staining were used to detect cardiac function and injury. IL-1β, IL-6 and TNF-α in serum were measured using ELISA kits. Cardiomyocyte apoptosis was assayed by TUNEL staining. Apoptosis and autophagy related proteins regulated by the PI3K/AKT/mTOR signaling pathway were tested using western blot.
resultsXBJ increased the survival rate in CLP-induced septic Rat. First of all, the results of echocardiography, H&E staining and myocardial injury markers (cTnI, CK, and LDH levels) showed that XBJ could effectively improve the myocardial injury caused by CLP with the increase of treatment time. Moreover, XBJ significantly decreased the levels of serum inflammatory cytokines IL-1β, IL-6 and TNF-α in SIMI rats. Meanwhile, XBJ downregulated the expression of apoptosis-related proteins Bax, Cleaved-Caspase 3, Cleaved-Caspase 9, Cytochrome C and Cleaved-PARP, while upregulated the protein levels of Bcl-2 in SIMI rats. And, XBJ upregulated the expression of autophagy related protein Beclin-1 and LC3-II/LC3-I ratio in SIMI rats, whereas downregulated the expression of P62. Finally, XBJ administration downregulated the phosphorylation levels of proteins PI3K, AKT and mTOR in SIMI rats.
conclusionsOur results showed that XBJ has a good protective effect on SIMI after continuous treatment, and it was speculated that it might be through inhibiting apoptosis and promoting autophagy via, at least partially, activating PI3K/AKT/mTOR pathway in the early stage of sepsis, as well as promoting apoptosis and inhibiting autophagy via suppressing PI3K/AKT/mTOR pathway in the late stage of sepsis.
