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

aimsIschaemic cardiomyopathy (ICM) leads to impaired contraction and ventricular dysfunction, causing high rates of morbidity and mortality. Epigenomics allows the identification of epigenetic signatures in human diseases. We analyse the differential epigenetic patterns of the ASB gene family in ICM patients and relate these alterations to their haemodynamic and functional status. METHODS AND

resultsEpigenomic analysis was carried out using 16 left ventricular (LV) tissue samples, eight from ICM patients undergoing heart transplantation and eight from control (CNT) subjects without cardiac disease. We increased the sample size up to 13 ICM and 10 CNT for RNA sequencing and to 14 ICM for pyrosequencing analyses. We found a hypermethylated profile (cg11189868) in the ASB1 gene that showed a differential methylation of 0.26Δβ (P = 0.016). This result was validated by a pyrosequencing technique (0.23Δβ, P = 0.048). Notably, the methylation pattern was strongly related to LV ejection fraction (r = -0.849, P = 0.008), stroke volume (r = -0.929, P = 0.001), and end-systolic and diastolic LV diameters (r = -0.743, P = 0.035 for both). ASB1 showed a down-regulation in messenger RNA levels (-1.2-fold, P = 0.039).

conclusionsOur findings link a specific ASB1 methylation pattern to LV structure and performance in end-stage ICM, opening new therapeutic opportunities and providing new insights regarding which is the functionally relevant genome in the ischaemic failing myocardium.
