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

The acute contractile function of the heart is controlled by the effects of released nonepinephrine (NE) on cardiac adrenergic receptors. NE can also act in a more chronic fashion to induce cardiomyocyte growth, characterized by cell enlargement (hypertrophy), increased protein synthesis, alterations in gene expression and addition of sarcomeres. These responses enhance cardiomyocyte contractile function and thus allow the heart to compensate for increased stress. The hypertrophic effects of NE are mediated through Gq-coupled alpha(1)-adrenergic receptors and are mimicked by the actions of other neurohormones (endothelin, prostaglandin F(2alpha) angiotensin II) that also act on Gq-coupled receptors. Activation of phospholipase C by Gq is necessary for these responses, and protein kinase C and MAP kinases have also been implicated. Gq stimulated cardiac hypertrophy is also evident in transgenic mouse models. In contrast, stimulation of G(s)-coupled beta-adrenergic receptors or G(i)-coupled receptors do not directly effect cardiomyocyte hypertrophy. Apoptosis is also induced by G-protein-coupled receptor stimulation in cardiomyocytes. Sustained or excessive activation of either Gq- or Gs-signaling pathways results in apoptotic loss of cardiomyocytes both in vitro and in vivo. Apoptosis is associated with decreased ventricular function in the failing heart. Cardiomyocytes provide an ideal model system for understanding the basis for G-protein mediated hypertrophy and apoptosis, and the mechanisms responsible for the transition from compensatory to deleterious levels of signaling. This information may prove critical for designing interventions that prevent the pathophysiological consequences of heart failure.
