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

Na(+)/Ca(2+) exchanger (NCX) plays important roles in cardiac electrical activity and calcium homeostasis. NCX current (I(NCX)) shows transmural gradient across left ventricle in many species. Previous studies demonstrated that NCX expression was increased and transmural gradient of I(NCX) was disrupted in failing heart, but the mechanisms underlying I(NCX) remodeling still remain unknown. In present study, we used patch clamp technique to record I(NCX) from subepicardial (EPI) myocytes and subendocardial (ENDO) myocytes isolated from sham operation (SO) mice and heart failure (HF) mice. Our results showed that I(NCX) was higher in normal EPI cells compared with that in ENDO, whatever for forward mode or reverse mode. In HF group, I(NCX) was significantly up-regulated, but EPI-ENDO difference was disrupted because of a more increase of I(NCX) in ENDO myocytes. In order to explore the molecular mechanism underlying remodeling of I(NCX) in failing heart, we detected the protein expression of NCX1 and Ca(2+)/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II (CaMKII) by Western blot. We found that CaMKII activity was dramatically enhanced and parallel with the expression of NCX1 in failing heart. Our study demonstrated that transmural gradient of I(NCX) existed in murine left ventricle, and increased activity of CaMKII should account for I(NCX) remodeling in failing heart.
