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

backgroundThe embryonic day E10-13 period of mouse heart development is characterized by robust cardiomyocyte proliferation that creates the compact zone of thickened ventricular wall myocardium. This process is initiated by the formation of the epicardium on the outer heart surface, which releases insulin-like growth factor 2 (IGF2) as the primary cardiomyocyte mitogen. Two receptors mediate IGF2 signaling, the IGF1R and the insulin receptor (INSR).

resultsIn this study, we addressed the relative roles of the two IGF2 receptors in mouse heart development. We find that both receptors are expressed in the mouse heart during the E10-13 period, although IGF1R is much more prominently activated by IGF2 than INSR. Genetic manipulation indicates that only Igf1r is required for embryonic ventricular wall morphogenesis. INSR is not hyperactivated in the absence of IGF1R, and INSR does not compensate functionally for IGF1R in the absence of the latter.

conclusionsThese results define the molecular components that are responsible for a major burst of cardiomyocyte proliferation during heart development. These results may also be relevant to understanding the efficiency of regeneration of the mammalian heart after neonatal and adult injury.
