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

Cardiac troponin T (cTnT) is a key component of contractile regulatory proteins. cTnT is characterized by a ∼32 amino acid N-terminal extension (NTE), the function of which remains unknown. To understand its function, we generated a transgenic (TG) mouse line that expressed a recombinant chimeric cTnT in which the NTE of mouse cTnT was removed by replacing its 1-73 residues with the corresponding 1-41 residues of mouse fast skeletal TnT. Detergent-skinned papillary muscle fibers from non-TG (NTG) and TG mouse hearts were used to measure tension, ATPase activity, Ca(2+) sensitivity (pCa(50)) of tension, rate of tension redevelopment, dynamic muscle fiber stiffness, and maximal fiber shortening velocity at sarcomere lengths (SLs) of 1.9 and 2.3 μm. Ca(2+) sensitivity increased significantly in TG fibers at both short SL (pCa(50) of 5.96 vs. 5.62 in NTG fibers) and long SL (pCa(50) of 6.10 vs. 5.76 in NTG fibers). Maximal cross-bridge turnover and detachment kinetics were unaltered in TG fibers. Our data suggest that the NTE constrains cardiac thin filament activation such that the transition of the thin filament from the blocked to the closed state becomes less responsive to Ca(2+). Our finding has implications regarding the effect of tissue- and disease-related changes in cTnT isoforms on cardiac muscle function.
