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

LPS-induced septic cardiomyopathy has been found to be connected with mitochondrial stress through unknown mechanisms. Mitochondrial fission is an early event in mitochondrial dysfunction. The aim of our study was to determine the role and regulatory mechanism of mitochondrial fission in the progression of LPS-induced septic cardiomyopathy, with a particular focus on Mst1 and F-actin. Our data demonstrated that Mst1 expression was rapidly upregulated in LPS-treated hearts and that increased Mst1 promoted cardiomyocyte death by inducing mitochondrial stress. Mechanistically, elevated expression of Mst1 upregulated Drp1, and the latter initiated mitochondrial fission. Excessive mitochondrial fission caused mitochondrial oxidative injury, mitochondrial membrane potential reduction, mitochondrial proapoptotic element translocation into the cytoplasm/nucleus, mitochondrial energy dysfunction and mitochondrial apoptosis activation. Inhibition of mitochondrial fission sustained mitochondrial function and favored cardiomyocyte survival. Furthermore, we identified F-actin degradation as an apparent downstream event of mitochondrial fission activation in the context of LPS-induced septic cardiomyopathy. Stabilization of F-actin attenuated fission-mediated cardiomyocyte death. Altogether, our results define the Mst1/Drp1/mitochondrial fission/F-actin axis as a new signaling pathway that mediates LPS-related septic cardiomyopathy by inducing mitochondrial stress and cardiomyocyte death. Therefore, Mst1 expression, mitochondrial fission modification and F-actin stabilization may serve as potential therapeutic targets for sepsis-related myocardial injury.
