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

objectiveCompelling evidence has demonstrated that Xuebijing (XBJ) exerted protective effects against SIMI. The aims of this study were to investigate whether TLR4/IKKα-mediated NF-κB and JAK2/STAT3 pathways were involved in XBJ's cardio-protection during sepsis and the mechanisms.

methodsIn this study, rats were randomly assigned to three groups: Sham group; CLP group; XBJ group. Rats were treated with XBJ or sanitary saline after CLP. Echocardiography, myocardial enzymes and HE were used to detect cardiac function. IL-1β, IL-6 and TNF-α in serum were measured using ELISA kits. Cardiomyocyte apoptosis were tested by TUNEL staining. The protein levels of Bax, Bcl-2, Bcl-xl, Cleaved-Caspase 3, Cleaved-Caspase 9, Cleaved-PARP, TLR4, p-NF-κB, p-IKKα, p-JAK2 and p-STAT3 in the myocardium were assayed by western blotting. And finally, immunofluorescence was used to assess the level of p-JAK2 and p-STAT3 in heart tissue.

resultsThe results of echocardiography, myocardial enzyme and HE test showed that XBJ could significantly improve SIMI. The IL-1β, IL-6 and TNF-α levels in the serum were markedly lower in the XBJ group than in the CLP group (

conclusionsIn here, we observed that XBJ's cardioprotective advantages may be attributable to its ability to suppress inflammation and apoptosis via inhibiting the TLR4/ IKKα-mediated NF-κB and JAK2/STAT3 pathways during sepsis.
