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

introductionQilong capsule (QC) has been used clinically to treat ischemic stroke in China. This study evaluated the therapeutic effects of QC on myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury (MIRI) and its potential mechanisms.

methodThe components and candidate targets of QC against MIRI were predicted by network pharmacology via relevant databases such as TCMSP, BATMAN-TCM, GeneCards. The potential mechanisms were predicted by Gene Ontology (GO) and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathway enrichment analyses and verified by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and Western blot.

resultsNetwork pharmacology analysis indicated that the cardioprotective effect of QC against MIRI was associated with inflammatory pathways. We further confirmed that QC effectively decreased the levels of inflammatory factors, including hs-CRP and MCP-1, and suppressed the expression of TNF-α and the phosphorylation of STAT3.

conclusionThis study provides evidence for further clinical applications of QC for MIRI therapy.
