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 epicardium of the heart originates from a cluster of mesothelial-derived cells that develop beneath the sinus venosus in the embryonic day (E) 9.0-9.5 mouse. The subsequent proepicardium-epicardium transition that forms the epicardial layer of epithelial cells covering the myocardial surface is nearly complete by E10.0-E10.5 and results in a fully covered heart by E11.0. In this study, we show that an established model of congenital heart disease, the retinoid X receptor alpha knockout (RXRalpha-/-) embryo, displays a malformed epicardium. At E10.0-E10.5, the RXRalpha-/- has several large regions of myocardium that remain bare. Furthermore, by E11.5-E12.5, when a complete epithelial layer is formed in the mutant, large regions of the epicardium become distended from the underlying myocardium. Close examination of the E9.5 mutant revealed an elevated apoptosis level within the proepicardial cluster of mesothelial cells. Additionally, among the extracellular matrix proteins analyzed, expression of fibronectin was elevated in the RXRalpha-/- as assessed by immunostaining in paraffin-embedded sections and proepicardial explants. We propose that these events contribute to a developmental delay in the formation of the epicardium, which leads to an abnormal epicardium and ultimately contributes to the cardiac malformations seen in the RXRalpha-/-.
