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

backgroundProgrammed necrosis (necroptosis) plays an important role in development, tissue homeostasis, and disease pathogenesis. The molecular mechanisms that regulate necroptosis in the heart and its physiological relevance in myocardial remodeling and heart failure remain largely unknown. METHODS AND

resultsHere, we identified an obligate function for TAK1 (transforming growth factor β-activated kinase 1, gene name Map3k7) in regulating necroptotic myocyte death, myocardial remodeling, and heart failure propensity. Cardiac-specific ablation of Map3k7 in mice induced spontaneous apoptosis and necroptosis that led to adverse remodeling and heart failure, and these effects were abolished by ablation of tumor necrosis factor receptor-1. Mechanistically, TAK1 functions as a molecular switch in tumor necrosis factor receptor-1 signaling by regulating the formation of 2 cell death complexes, RIP 1 (receptor-interacting protein 1)-FADD (Fas-associated protein with death domain)-caspase 8 and RIP1-RIP3, a process that is dependent on FADD and caspase 8 as scaffolding molecules. Importantly, inhibition of RIP1 or RIP3 largely blocked necroptotic cell death, adverse remodeling, and heart failure in TAK1-deficient mice.

conclusionsThese results indicate that TAK1 functions as a key survival factor in the heart by directly antagonizing necroptosis, which is critical for the maintenance of myocardial homeostasis and the prevention of adverse myocardial remodeling.
