Potential Role of Regulator of G-Protein Signaling 5 in the Protection of Vagal-Related Bradycardia and Atrial Tachyarrhythmia.
Article in Journal of the American Heart Association, 2016. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
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
backgroundThe regulator of G-protein signaling 5 (Rgs5), which functions as the regulator of G-protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) including muscarinic receptors, has a potential effect on atrial muscarinic receptor-activated IKA ch current. METHODS AND
resultsIn the present study, hearts of Rgs5 knockout (KO) mice had decreased low-frequency/high-frequency ratio in spectral measures of heart rate variability. Loss of Rgs5 provoked dramatically exaggerated bradycardia and significantly (P<0.05) prolonged sinus nodal recovery time in response to carbachol (0.1 mg/kg, intraperitoneally). Compared to those from wild-type (WT) mice, Langendorff perfused hearts from Rgs5 KO mice had significantly (P<0.01) abbreviated atrial effective refractory periods and increased dominant frequency after administration of acetylcholine (ACh; 1 μmol/L). In addition, whole patch clamp analyses of single atrial myocytes revealed that the ACh-regulated potassium current (IKA ch) was significant increased in the time course of activation and deactivation (P<0.01) in Rgs5 KO, compared to those in WT, mice. To further determine the effect of Rgs5, transgenic mice with cardiac-specific overexpression of human Rgs5 were found to be resistant to ACh-related effects in bradycardia, atrial electrophysiology, and atrial tachyarrhythmia (AT).
conclusionThe results of this study indicate that, as a critical regulator of parasympathetic activation in the heart, Rgs5 prevents vagal-related bradycardia and AT through negatively regulating the IKA ch current.
