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

GATA4 is a member of the GATA family of zinc finger transcription factor, which regulates gene transcription by binding to GATA elements. GATA4 was originally discovered as a regulator of cardiac development and subsequently identified as a major regulator of adult cardiac hypertrophy. GATA4 regulates gene expression of various genes, which are involved in cardiac development and cardiac hypertrophy and heart failure. In addition to the heart, GATA4 plays important roles in the reproductive system, gastrointestinal system, respiratory system and cancer. Positive and negative regulations of GATA4 therefore are important components of biologic functions. The activation of GATA4 occurs via various cell signaling events. Earlier studies have identified protein-protein interactions of GATA4 with other factors. The discovery of interactions of GATA4 with nuclear factor for activated T cells (NFAT) revealed the importance of calcium signaling in the activation of GATA4. GATA4 can also be phosphorylated by mitogen activated protein kinases and protein kinase A. Lysine modifications also occur on the GATA4 molecule including acetylation and sumoylation. Both reactive oxygen-dependent and -independent antioxidant-sensitive pathways for GATA4 activation have also been demonstrated. The GATA4 activity is also regulated by modulating the level of GATA4 expression via transcriptional as well as translational mechanisms. This work summarizes the current understanding of regulatory mechanisms for modulating GATA4 activity.
