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)-induced cardiomyopathy has poor prognosis, and myocardial inflammation is intimately involved in its pathophysiology. The role of invariant natural killer T (iNKT) cells has not been fully determined in this disease. We here demonstrated that activation of iNKT cells by α-galactosylceramide (GC) attenuated DOX-induced cardiomyocyte death and cardiac dysfunction. αGC increased interferon (IFN)-γ and phosphorylation of signal transducers and activators of transcription 1 (STAT1) and extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK). Administration of anti-IFN-γ neutralizing antibody abrogated the beneficial effects of αGC on DOX-induced cardiac dysfunction. These findings emphasize the protective role of iNKT cells in DOX-induced cardiomyopathy via the IFN-γ-STAT1-ERK pathway.
