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

Introduction: Chronic heart failure (CHF) is a leading cause of deaths induced by cardiovascular disease. This study aimed to investigate the protective effects of emodin in CHF rats and explore the related mechanisms. Material and methods: A total of 56 Wistar rats were used to construct CHF model using the coronary artery ligation. The effects of emodin on cardiac function and inflammation were analyzed in the CHF rats. Expression of miR-26b-5p in the CHF model before and after emodin treatment was estimated by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction. The effects of miR-26b-5p on cardiac function and inflammation were also assessed, and its target gene was predicted and confirmed in rat cardiomyocyte H9c2. Results: Emodin treatment could significant improve the cardiac function and inflammation evidenced by the increased increased ejection fraction (EF), fractional shortening (FS), left ventricular systolic pressure (LVSP) and maximum of the first differentiation of left ventricular pressure (+LV dP/dt Conclusions: All the results indicated that emodin serves a protective role in CHF via regulation of the miR-26b-5p/PTEN pathway. Emodin may be an effective therapeutic agent for CHF treatment.
