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

Cardiac activator protein-1 (AP-1), composed of c-Jun, is significantly activated by hypertension or angiotensin II (AngII). This study was undertaken to elucidate whether c-Jun could be the potential target for treatment of cardiac hypertrophy. We constructed recombinant adenovirus carrying dominant-negative mutant of c-Jun (Ad.DN-c-Jun). Using catheter-based technique of adenoviral gene transfer, we achieved global myocardial transduction of DN-c-Jun in rats, to specifically inhibit cardiac AP-1. (1) AngII (200 ng/kg/min) infusion in rats caused cardiac hypertrophy, increased cardiac p70S6 kinase activity by 1.3-fold (P<0.05) and enhanced the gene expression of cardiac hypertrophic markers. Ad.DN-c-Jun, which was transferred to the heart 2 days before AngII infusion, prevented cardiac hypertrophy (P<0.01), decreased p70S6 kinase phosphorylation (P<0.05), and suppressed cardiac gene expression of brain natriuretic peptide, collagen I, III, and IV, monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1) and plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1) (P<0.01). (2) In genetically hypertensive rats with cardiac hypertrophy, cardiac gene transfer of Ad.DN-c-Jun, without affecting hypertension, regressed cardiac hypertrophy (P<0.05), and suppressed p70S6 kinase phosphorylation by 20% (P<0.05) and suppressed the enhanced expression of collagen I, III, and IV, MCP-1 and PAI-1. These results provided the first evidence that in vivo blockade of cardiac c-Jun inhibits pathologic cardiac hypertrophy.
