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
backgroundEarly identification of patients susceptible to chemotherapy-induced cardiotoxicity could lead to targeted treatment to reduce cardiac dysfunction. Rats treated with doxorubicin (DOX), a chemotherapeutic agent, have increased cardiac expression of 14,15-dihydroxyeicosatrienoic acid (14,15-DHET), a bioactive lipid implicated in hypertension and coronary artery disease. However, the utility of 14,15-DHET as plasma biomarkers was not defined. The aim of this study is to investigate if levels of 14,15-DHET are an early blood biomarker to predict the subsequent occurrence of cardiotoxicity in cancer patients after chemotherapy.
methodsH9c2 rat cardiomyocytes were treated with DOX (1 μM) for 2 h and levels of 14,15-DHET in cell media was quantified at 2, 6 or 24 h in media after DOX treatment. Similarly, female Sprague-Dawley rats were treated with DOX for two weeks and levels of 14,15-DHET was assessed in plasma at 48 h and 2 weeks after DOX treatment. Changes in brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) mRNA, an early cardiac hypertrophy process, were determined in the H9c2 cells and rat cardiac tissue. Results were confirmed in human subjects by assessment of levels of 14,15-DHET in plasma of breast cancer patients before and after DOX treatment and left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF), a clinical marker of cardiotoxicity.
resultsLevels of 14,15-DHET in cell media and rat plasma increased ~ 3-fold and was accompanied with increase in BNP mRNA in H9c2 cells and rat cardiac tissue after DOX treatment. In matched plasma samples from breast cancer patients, levels of 14,15-DHET were increased in patients that developed cardiotoxicity at 3 months before occurrence of LVEF decrease.
conclusionsTogether, these results indicate that levels of 14,15-DHET are elevated prior to major changes in cardiac structure and function after exposure to anthracyclines. Increased levels of 14,15-DHET in plasma may be an important clinical biomarker for early detection of anthracycline-induced cardiotoxicity in cancer patients.
