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

Calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II (CaMKII) has been proposed to be a therapeutic target for heart failure (HF). However, the cardiac effect of chronic CaMKII inhibition in HF has not been well understood. We have tested alterations of Ca(2+) handling, excitation-contraction coupling, and in vivo β-adrenergic regulation in pressure-overload HF mice with CaMKIIδ knockout (KO). HF was produced in wild-type (WT) and KO mice 1 wk after severe thoracic aortic banding (sTAB) with a continuous left ventricle (LV) dilation and reduction of ejection fraction for up to 3 wk postbanding. Cardiac hypertrophy was similar between WT HF and KO HF mice. However, KO HF mice manifested exacerbation of diastolic function and reduction in cardiac reserve to β-adrenergic stimulation. Compared with WT HF, L-type calcium channel current (I(Ca)) density in KO HF LV was decreased without changes in I(Ca) activation and inactivation kinetics, whereas I(Ca) recovery from inactivation was accelerated and Ca(2+)-dependent I(Ca) facilitation, a positive staircase blunted in WT HF, was recovered. However, I(Ca) response to isoproterenol was reduced. KO HF myocytes manifested dramatic decrease in sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) Ca(2+) leak and slowed cytostolic Ca(2+) concentration decline. Sarcomere shortening was increased, but relaxation was slowed. In addition, an increase in myofilament sensitivity to Ca(2+) and the slow skeletal muscle troponin I-to-cardiac troponin I ratio and interstitial fibrosis and a decrease in Na/Ca exchange function and myocyte apoptosis were observed in KO HF LV. CaMKIIδ KO cannot suppress severe pressure-overload-induced HF. Although cellular contractility is improved, it reduces in vivo cardiac reserve to β-adrenergic regulation and deteriorates diastolic function. Our findings challenge the strategy of CaMKII inhibition in HF.
