Function of the CaMKII-ryanodine receptor signaling pathway in rabbits with left ventricular hypertrophy and triggered ventricular arrhythmia.
Article in World journal of emergency medicine, 2012. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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.
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
backgroundCalcium calmodulin-dependent kinase II (CaMKII) can be more active in patients with left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH), which in turn causes phosphorylation of ryanodine receptors, resulting in inactivation and the instability of intracellular calcium homeostasis. The present study aimed to determine the effect of CaMKII-ryanodine receptor pathway signaling in rabbits with left ventricular hypertrophy and triggered ventricular arrhythmia.
methodsForty New Zealand rabbits were randomized into four groups (10 per group): sham group, LVH group, KN-93 group (LVH+KN-93), and ryanodine group (LVH+ryanodine). Rabbits in the LVH, KN-93, and ryanodine groups were used to establish a left ventricular hypertrophy model by the coarctation of the abdominal aorta, while those in the sham group did not undergo the coarctation. After eight weeks, action potentials (APs) were recorded simultaneously in the endocardium and epicardium, and a transmural electrocardiogram (ECG) was also recorded in the rabbit left ventricular wedge model. Drugs were administered to the animals in the KN-93 and ryanodine groups, and the frequency of triggered APs and ventricular tachycardia was recorded after the rabbits were given isoprenaline (1 μmol/L) and high-frequency stimulation.
resultsThe frequency (animals/group) of triggered APs was 0/10 in the sham group, 10/10 in the LVH group, 4/10 in the KN-93 group, and 1/10 in the ryanodine group. The frequencies of ventricular tachycardia were 0/10, 9/10, 3/10, and 1/10, respectively. The frequencies of polymorphic ventricular tachycardia or ventricular fibrillation were 0/10, 7/10, 2/10, and 1/10, respectively. The frequencies of triggered ventricular arrhythmias in the KN-93 and ryanodine groups were much lower than those in the LVH group (P<0.05).
conclusionsKN-93 and ryanodine can effectively reduce the occurrence of triggered ventricular arrhythmia in rabbits with LVH. The CaMKII-ryanodine signaling pathway can be used as a new means of treating ventricular arrhythmia.
