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

background and purposeDespite the importance of mitochondrial Ca(2+) to metabolic regulation and cell physiology, little is known about the mechanisms that regulate Ca(2+) entry into the mitochondria. Accordingly, we established a system to determine the role of the mitochondrial Ca(2+) uniporter in an isolated heart model, at baseline and during increased workload following β-adrenoceptor stimulation. EXPERIMENTAL APPROACH: Cardiac contractility, oxygen consumption and intracellular Ca(2+) transients were measured in ex vivo perfused murine hearts. Ru360 and spermine were used to modify mitochondrial Ca(2+) uniporter activity. Changes in mitochondrial Ca(2+) content and energetic phosphate metabolite levels were determined. KEY

resultsThe addition of Ru360 , a selective inhibitor of the mitochondrial Ca(2+) uniporter, induced progressively and sustained negative inotropic effects that were dose-dependent with an EC50 of 7 μM. Treatment with spermine, a uniporter agonist, showed a positive inotropic effect that was blocked by Ru360 . Inotropic stimulation with isoprenaline elevated oxygen consumption (2.7-fold), Ca(2+) -dependent activation of pyruvate dehydrogenase (5-fold) and mitochondrial Ca(2+) content (2.5-fold). However, in Ru360 -treated hearts, this parameter was attenuated. In addition, β-adrenoceptor stimulation in the presence of Ru360 did not affect intracellular Ca(2+) handling, PKA or Ca(2+) /calmodulin-dependent PK signalling. CONCLUSIONS AND IMPLICATIONS: Inhibition of the mitochondrial Ca(2+) uniporter decreases β-adrenoceptor response, uncoupling between workload and production of energetic metabolites. Our results support the hypothesis that the coupling of workload and energy supply is partly dependent on mitochondrial Ca(2+) uniporter activity.
