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
Ferroptosis is closely associated with the pathophysiology of myocardial ischemia. Hydroxysafflor yellow A (HSYA), the main active ingredient in the Chinese herbal medicine safflower, exerts significant protective effects against myocardial ischemia/reperfusion injury (MI/RI). The aim of this study was to investigate the protective effects of HSYA against MI/RI and identify the putative underlying mechanisms. An in vivo model of acute MI/RI was established in C57 mice. Subsequently, the effects of HSYA on myocardial tissue injury were evaluated by histology. Lipid peroxidation and myocardial injury marker contents in myocardial tissue and serum and iron contents in myocardial tissue were determined using biochemical assays. Mitochondrial damage was assessed using transmission electron microscopy. H9C2 cardiomyocytes were induced in vitro by oxygen-glucose deprivation/reoxygenation, and ferroptosis inducer erastin was administered to detect ferroptosis-related indicators, oxidative-stress-related indicators, and expressions of ferroptosis-related proteins and HIF-1α. In MI/RI model mice, HSYA reduced myocardial histopathological damage, ameliorated mitochondrial damage in myocardial cells, and decreased total cellular iron and ferrous ion contents in myocardial tissue. HSYA increased the protein levels of SLC7A11, HIF-1α, and GPX4 and mitigated erastin- or HIF-1α siRNA-induced damage in H9C2 cells. In summary, HSYA alleviated MI/RI by activating the HIF-1α/SLC7A11/GPX4 signaling pathway, thereby inhibiting ferroptosis.
