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

Background: Alcohol misuse leads to cardiomyopathy. Hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) concentrations and iron metabolism fluctuations are both associated with cardiovascular diseases. This investigation is designed to test if and how HGF regulates cardiac ferroptosis. Methods: Male Sprague Dawley rats were used to establish animal models. Exogenous HGF's potential to reduce cardiomyocyte ferroptosis, which is typified by varying labile iron pool (LIP), elevated lipid peroxidation, and diminished cell survival, was examined by fluorescence quantification, enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), Cell Counting Kit-8 (CCK8) and calcein staining. Nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 ( Results: HGF suppressed cardiac ferroptosis through Conclusions: HGF functions as a potent protective factor for alcoholic cardiomyopathy (ACM) by inhibiting cardiac ferroptosis via
