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 a broad-spectrum chemotherapeutic drug used in clinical treatment of malignant tumors. It has a high anticancer activity but also high cardiotoxicity. The aim of this study was to explore the mechanism of Tongmai Yangxin pills (TMYXPs) in ameliorating DOX-induced cardiotoxicity through integrated metabolomics and network pharmacology. In this study, first, an ultrahigh-performance liquid chromatography-quadrupole-time-of-flight/mass spectrometry (UPLC-Q-TOF/MS) metabonomics strategy was established to obtain metabolite information and potential biomarkers were determined after data processing. Second, network pharmacological analysis was used to evaluate the active components, drug-disease targets, and key pathways of TMYXPs to alleviate DOX-induced cardiotoxicity. Targets from the network pharmacology analysis and metabolites from plasma metabolomics were jointly analyzed to select crucial metabolic pathways. Finally, the related proteins were verified by integrating the above results and the possible mechanism of TMYXPs to alleviate DOX-induced cardiotoxicity was studied. After metabolomics data processing, 17 different metabolites were screened, and it was found that TMYXPs played a role in myocardial protection mainly by affecting the tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle of myocardial cells. A total of 71 targets and 20 related pathways were screened out with network pharmacological analysis. Based on the combined analysis of 71 targets and different metabolites, TMYXPs probably played a role in myocardial protection through regulating upstream proteins of the insulin signaling pathway, MAPK signaling pathway, and p53 signaling pathway, as well as the regulation of metabolites related to energy metabolism. They then further affected the downstream Bax/Bcl-2-Cyt c-caspase-9 axis, inhibiting the myocardial cell apoptosis signaling pathway. The results of this study may contribute to the clinical application of TMYXPs in DOX-induced cardiotoxicity.
