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

Acute myocardial infarction (MI) is a leading cause of death worldwide. Although with current treatment, acute mortality from MI is low, the damage and remodeling associated with MI are responsible for subsequent heart failure. Reducing cell death associated with acute MI would decrease the mortality associated with heart failure. Despite considerable study, the precise mechanism by which ischemia and reperfusion (I/R) trigger cell death is still not fully understood. In this Review, we summarize the changes that occur during I/R injury, with emphasis on those that might initiate cell death, such as calcium overload and oxidative stress. We review cell-death pathways and pathway crosstalk and discuss cardioprotective approaches in order to provide insight into mechanisms that could be targeted with therapeutic interventions. Finally, we review cardioprotective clinical trials, with a focus on possible reasons why they were not successful. Cardioprotection has largely focused on inhibiting a single cell-death pathway or one death-trigger mechanism (calcium or ROS). In treatment of other diseases, such as cancer, the benefit of targeting multiple pathways with a "drug cocktail" approach has been demonstrated. Given the crosstalk between cell-death pathways, targeting multiple cardiac death mechanisms should be considered.
