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

Cardiomyopathy caused by lamin A/C gene (LMNA) mutations (hereafter referred as LMNA cardiomyopathy) is characterized by cardiac conduction abnormalities and left ventricular systolic dysfunction predisposing to heart failure. Previous cardiac transcriptional profiling of LmnaH222P/H222P mouse, a small animal model of LMNA cardiomyopathy, suggested decreased WNT/β-catenin signalling. We confirmed decreased WNT/β-catenin signalling in the hearts of these mice by demonstrating decreased β-catenin and WNT proteins. This was correlated with increased expression of soluble Frizzled-related proteins that modulate the WNT/β-catenin signalling pathway. Hearts of LmnaH222P/H222P mice also demonstrated lowered expression of the gap junction connexin 43. Activation of WNT/β-catenin activity with 6-bromoindirubin-3'-oxime improved cardiac contractility and ameliorated intraventricular conduction defects in LmnaH222P/H222P mice, which was associated with increased expression of myocardial connexin 43. These results indicate that decreased WNT/β-catenin contributes to the pathophysiology of LMNA cardiomyopathy and that drugs activating β-catenin may be beneficial in affected individuals.
