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

Gap junctions (GJs), collections of multiple intercellular channels between neighboring cells, are specialized channels facilitating intercellular electrical and chemical communication. GJs are important for synchronizing coupling and coordinated contraction in the heart, and are crucial regulators of heart gene transcription, cardiac development, and protection of ischemic cardiomyocytes through second messenger communication. Identification of proteins that interact with Connexin43 (Cx43), the predominant protein in cardiac GJs, may contribute to the understanding of GJ functional regulation. Using a yeast two-hybrid system, we identified Caveolin-3 (Cav3) as a new Cx43-interacting protein. This interaction was confirmed by co-immunoprecipitation and co-localization experiments. CX43 interacts with Cav3, suggesting that Cav3 may participate in the functional regulation of GJs.
