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

Histone deacetylases (HDACs) play integral roles in many cardiovascular biological processes ranging from transcriptional and translational regulation to protein stabilization and localization. There are 18 known HDACs categorized into 4 classes that can differ on the basis of substrate targets, subcellular localization, and regulatory binding partners. HDACs are classically known for their ability to remove acetyl groups from histone and nonhistone proteins that have lysine residues. However, despite their nomenclature and classical functions, discoveries from many research groups over the past decade have suggested that nondeacetylase roles exist for class IIa HDACs. This is not surprising given that class IIa HDACs have, for example, relatively poor deacetylase capabilities and are often shuttled in and out of nuclei upon specific pathological and nonpathological cardiac events. This review aims to consolidate and elucidate putative nondeacetylase roles for class IIa HDACs and, where possible, highlight studies that provide evidence for their noncanonical roles, especially in the context of cardiovascular maladies. There has been great interest recently in exploring the pharmacological regulators of HDACs for use in therapeutic interventions for treating cardiovascular diseases and inflammation. Thus it is of interest to earnestly consider nonenzymatic and or nondeacetylase roles of HDACs that might be key in potentiating or abrogating pathologies. These noncanonical HDAC functions may possibly yield new mechanisms and targets for drug discovery.
