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

In this article, the available evidence about the functional effects of the contractile protein mutations that cause hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) and dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) is assessed. The molecular mechanism of the contractile apparatus of cardiac muscle and its regulation by Ca(2+) and PKA phosphorylation have been extensively studied. Therefore, when a number of point mutations in the contractile protein genes were found to cause the well-defined phenotypes of HCM and DCM, it was expected that the diseases could be explained at the molecular level. However, the search for a distinctive molecular phenotype did not yield rapid results. Now that a substantial number of mutations that cause HCM or DCM have been investigated in physiologically relevant systems and with a range of experimental techniques, a pattern is emerging. In the case of HCM, the hypothesis that the major effect of mutations is to increase myofibrillar Ca(2+)-sensitivity seems to be well established, but the mechanisms by which an increase in myofibrillar Ca(2+)-sensitivity induces hypertrophy remain obscure. In contrast, DCM mutations are not correlated with a specific effect on Ca(2+)-sensitivity. It has recently been proposed that DCM mutations uncouple troponin I phosphorylation from Ca(2+)-sensitivity changes, albeit based on only a few mutations so far. A plausible link between uncoupling and DCM has been proposed via blunting of the response to α-adrenergic stimulation.
