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

backgroundCalcific aortic valve disease (CAVD) is a significant cause of morbidity and mortality among elderly people. However, no effective medications have been approved to slow or prevent the progression of CAVD. Here, we examined the effect of liraglutide on aortic valve stenosis.

methodsMale

resultsPlasma GLP-1 levels were reduced in the CAVD model, and liraglutide treatment significantly improved aortic valve calcification and functions and attenuated inflammation. RNA-seq showed that liraglutide affects multiple myofibroblastic and osteogenic differentiations or inflammation-associated biological states or processes in the aortic valve. Those liraglutide-mediated beneficial effects were associated with increased GLP-1 receptor (GLP-1R) expression.

conclusionsLiraglutide blocks aortic valve calcification and may serve as a potential therapeutic drug for CAVD treatment.
