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

objectivesTo investigate the effect of inhibiting miR-503 on myocardial infarction (MI) and clarify its upstream regulatory factors and downstream effector pathways to identify potential therapeutic targets for MI.

methodsMouse models of MI established by ligation of the left anterior descending coronary artery were treated with intravenous injections of normal saline, antagomir-503 or antagomiR-NC (

resultsMiR-503 expression was significantly upregulated in both MI mouse hearts and hypoxic cardiomyocytes. In MI mouse models, antagomir-503 significantly improved cardiac function, reduced infarct size, downregulated Bax and cleaved caspase-3 expressions, and upregulated Apelin expression. In hypoxic neonatal rat cardiomyocytes, treatment with AMO-503 significantly enhanced cell viability, decreased cell apoptosis rate, and restored mitochondrial membrane potential. Mechanistically, the long non-coding RNA AK134630 could bind to and negatively regulate miR-503, and inhibition of miR-503 effectively relieved the inhibitory effect of RNA AK134630 on the downstream target gene Apelin.

conclusionsInhibition of miR-503 alleviates MI injury in mice by upregulating Apelin expression to inhibit cardiomyocyte apoptosis and protect mitochondrial function, and AK134630 participates in this regulatory mechanism as an upstream ceRNA of miR-503.
