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

Objective: To investigate the molecular targets and signaling pathways involved in the therapeutic effects of Lishukang Capsule (LSK) in a rat model of high-altitude pulmonary edema (HAPE) using a proteomics-based approach. Methods: A total of 60 male Wistar rats were randomly assigned to a control group, a HAPE model group, 3 LSK treatment groups receiving low-, medium-, and high-dose LSK, respectively, and a Results: The medium-dose LSK group exhibited significant anti-HAPE effects. Findings from the proteomic analysis revealed, in the comparison with the control group, 267 DEPs were identified in the HAPE group. In the comparison with the HAPE group, 225 DEPs were identified in the medium-dose LSK group. A total of 112 DEPs in the control group were normalized following LSK treatment in the medium-dose LSK group. In addition, GO enrichment analysis of proteins differentially expressed between the HAPE and LSK group showed that these DEPs were mainly enriched in 12 biological processes, 2 cellular components, and 5 molecular functions. KEGG pathway analysis showed that LSK activated pathways associated with cell adhesion molecules, glycosaminoglycan biosynthesis, DNA replication/nucleotide excision repair, transcriptional dysregulation in cancer, and Herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) infection, while inhibiting pathways associated with glycerophospholipid metabolism. Some differentially expressed proteins with potential functions were verified by Western blotting, including AGPAT5, NCAM1, SRSF3, and PLA2. These differentially expressed proteins were significantly expressed in the normal group, HAPE group, and LSK group, and the validation results were consistent with proteomic findings, indicating the high reliability of the proteomic results. Conclusion: LSK exerts a significant protective effect against HAPE. Proteomic analysis suggests that its therapeutic action may be mediated through activating pathways involved in cell adhesion molecules, glycosaminoglycan biosynthesis, DNA replication/nucleotide excision repair, transcriptional dysregulation in cancer, and HSV-1 infection, alongside inhibition of pathways associated with glycerophospholipid metabolism. The key DEPs identified in these pathways may play crucial roles in the preventive and therapeutic effects of LSK on HAPE.
