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

This study aimed to explore the mechanisms through which salvianolic acid B (Sal-B) exerts its effects during myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury (MI/RI), aiming to demonstrate the potential pharmacological characteristics of Sal-B in the management of coronary heart disease. First, Sal-B-related targets and MI/RI-related genes were compiled from public databases. Subsequent functional enrichment analyses using the protein-protein interaction (PPI) network, gene ontology (GO), and the Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) predicted the core targets and approaches by which Sal-B counters MI/RI. Second, a Sal-B-treated MI/RI mouse model and oxygen-glucose deprivation/reoxygenation (OGD/R) H9C2 cell model were selected to verify the main targets of the network pharmacological prediction. An intersectional analysis between Sal-B and MI/RI targets identified 69 common targets, with a PPI network analysis highlighting caspase-3, c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK), and p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (p38) as central targets. GO and KEGG enrichment analyses indicated remarkable enrichment of the apoptosis pathway among these targets, suggesting their utility in experimental studies in vivo. Experimental results demonstrated that Sal-B treatment not only mitigated myocardial infarction size following MI/RI injury in mice but also modulated the expression of key apoptotic regulators, including Bcl-2-Associated X (Bax), caspase-3, JNK, and p38, alongside enhancing the B-cell lymphoma-2 (Bcl-2) expression, thereby inhibiting myocardial tissue apoptosis. This study leveraged an integrative network pharmacology approach to predict Sal-B's potential targets in MI/RI treatment and verified the involvement of key target proteins within the predicted signaling pathways through both in vivo and in vitro experiments, offering a comprehensive insight into Sal-B's pharmacological mechanism in MI/RI management.
