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 research aimed to evaluate the therapeutic effect of corilagin (Cor) against angiotensin II (Ang II)-induced cardiac fibrosis and its underlying mechanisms. C57BL/6 mice (male, 8-10 weeks) received saline or Ang II (2.0 mg/kg/day) via subcutaneous infusion and intraperitoneal injection of Cor (30 mg/kg) for 28 days. Ang II induction increased the fibrotic area, whereas Cor treatment inhibited the fibrotic area significantly. Cor markedly reduced the Ang II-induced cardiac fibroblasts. Cor significantly inhibited Ang II-induced increase in expressions of smooth muscle alpha-actin (α-SMA), collagen I, collagen III, transforming growth factor beta 1 (TGF-β1), fibronectin, and connective tissue growth factor (CTGF). Cor suppressed the intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) production. Cor therapy reduced Ang II-induced malondialdehyde (MDA) content, whereas superoxide dismutase (SOD) and catalase (CAT) activities were increased (all,
