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

backgroundSepsis-induced cardiomyopathy (SIC) involves ferroptosis, an iron-dependent cell death. Hypoxia-inducible factor-1α (HIF-1α) regulates autophagy and apoptosis, but its role in ferroptosis remains unclear. This study investigates the interaction between the HIF1A/BNIP3 signaling pathway and the ferroptosis axis, SLC7A11/GPX4, in septic myocardial injury.

methodsA rat model of septic myocardial injury was created via cecal ligation and puncture (CLP), with an in vitro model using lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-treated H9c2 cardiomyocytes. Groups: sham, CLP, CLP + solvent, CLP + HIF1A inhibitor (LW6), CLP + ferroptosis inhibitor (Fer-1), and CLP + LW6 + Fer-1. Cardiac function, histopathological changes, and biomarkers (myocardial injury/inflammation/ferroptosis) were measured. In vitro, H9c2 cells were treated with LPS, LW6, or fenbendazole (FZ) and transfected with BNIP3 shRNA. Various assays were used to evaluate cell viability, ROS levels, and protein interactions.

results(1) HIF1A/BNIP3 activation aggravated septic myocardial injury and ferroptosis; inhibition reversed this. (2) BNIP3 knockdown alleviated LPS-induced injury and ferroptosis in H9c2 cells. (3) BNIP3 and BECN1 competed for BCL-2 binding, modulating ferroptosis-related signaling.

conclusionBCL-2 links the HIF1A/BNIP3 and BECN1/SLC7A11/GPX4 pathways, offering insights into septic myocardial injury mechanisms and potential therapeutic targets.
