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

Ischemic heart disease, as one of the major causes of morbidity worldwide, there is no effective therapy for preventing myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury (MIRI). Baicalin, a flavonoid glycoside extracted from the Scutellaria baicalensis Georgi, yet its effects in MIRI remain unclear. In the study, pretreatment with Baicalin (100 mg/kg, i.p.) markedly alleviated I/R-induced cardiac dysfunction, as shown by reduced serum lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), creatine kinase (CK), and myocardial infarction. Baicalin also improved cardiomyocyte survival by increasing Bcl-2 and decreasing Bax and caspase-3/9 levels. In addition, Baicalin suppressed oxidative stress by reducing malondialdehyde (MDA) while elevating glutathione (GSH) and superoxide dismutase (SOD) levels. Moreover, Baicalin inhibited the STING, NLRP3, cleaved caspase-1, IL-18, and IL-1β expression in vivo and in vitro. Crucially, amidobenzimidazole (ABZI), a STING agonist, reversed the cardioprotective effects of Baicalin. Collectively, these findings demonstrated that Baicalin exerted cardioprotective effects by attenuating apoptosis and oxidative stress through suppression of STING/NLRP3 activation.
