Protective Effect of Remote Ischemic Preconditioning against Myocardial Ischemia-Reperfusion Injury in Rats and Mice: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis.

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
Background: Remote ischemic preconditioning (RIPC) has cardioprotective effects. This study was designed to evaluate the effectiveness and potential influencing factors of RIPC for myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury (MIRI) in rats and mice. Methods: The PubMed, Web of Science, Embase, and Cochrane Library databases were searched to identify animal model studies that explored the effect of RIPC on MIRI. The primary outcome was myocardial infarct size, and secondary outcomes included serum cardiac markers, vital signs, hemodynamic parameters, and TUNEL-positive cells. Quality was assessed using SYRCLE's Risk of Bias Tool. Results: This systematic review and meta-analysis included 713 male animals from 37 studies. RIPC significantly protected against MIRI in small animal models by reducing infarct size, decreasing serum myocardial marker levels and cell death, and improving cardiac function. Subgroup analysis indicated that RIPC duration and sites influence the protective effect of RIPC on MIRI. Meta-regression suggested that study type and staining method might be sources of heterogeneity. The funnel plot, Egger's test, and Begg's test suggested the existence of publication bias, but results of the sensitivity analysis and nonparametric trim-and-fill method showed that the overall effect of RIPC on MIRI infarct size was robust. Conclusions: RIPC significantly protected against MIRI in small animal models by reducing infarct size, decreasing serum myocardial markers and limiting cell death, and improving cardiac function. RIPC duration and site influence the protective effect of RIPC on MIRI, which contributes in reducing confounding factors and determines the best approach for human studies.
