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

objectiveTo test the hypothesis that cardiac-directed expression of the cytoplasmic domains of adenylyl cyclase-6 (AC6) would have beneficial effects on the heart.

backgroundEliminating the two transmembrane domains of AC6 yields a protein with an intact catalytic domain that is disengaged from membrane-associated β-adrenergic receptor stimulation, but with enhanced propensity for intracellular interactions.

methodsWe constructed a peptide of the C1 and C2 segments of AC6 (C1C2), expressed C1C2 in an adenovirus vector and generated transgenic lines with cardiac-directed C1C2 expression, which underwent sustained isoproterenol (Iso) infusion.

resultsGene transfer of C1C2 in cardiac myocytes showed reduced cAMP generation in response to Iso-stimulation. C1C2 transgenic mice had normal left ventricular (LV) structure and function. LV samples from C1C2 mice showed diminished Iso-stimulated cAMP generation but normal LV contractile responses, suggesting a compensatory mechanism. Cardiac myocytes from C1C2 mice showed increased Iso-stimulated Ca2+ release and reduced time to peak Ca2+ release. After 7 days Iso infusion, control mice tended to show reduced LV function, but C1C2 mice showed increases in both LV peak +dP/dt and peak -dP/dt indicating enhanced LV systolic and diastolic function. LV from C1C2 mice showed a 2.6-fold increase in SERCA2a protein, and cardiac myocytes showed increased Ca2+ release, reduced time to peak Ca2+ release and reduced Tau.

conclusionsIn C1C2 mice, sustained isoproterenol infusion increases rather than decreases LV function. Reduced cAMP generation and resistance to catecholamine cardiomyopathy are attractive features of this novel AC-related protein.
