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

backgroundHypertrophic cardiomyopathy occurs along with pathological phenomena such as cardiac hypertrophy, myocardial fibrosis and cardiomyocyte activity. However, few of the specific molecular mechanisms underlying this pathological condition have been mentioned.

methodsAll target proteins and markers expression in the study was verified by PCR and western bloting. H9c2 cell morphology and behavior were analyzed using immunofluorescent and proliferation assays, respectively. And, the CTGF protein secreted in cell culture medium was detected by ELISA.

resultsWe found that high expression of CTGF and low expression of EGFR were regulated by ERK1/2 signaling pathway during the cardiac hypertrophy induced by Ang-II stimulation. CTGF interacted with EGFR, and the interaction is reduced with the stimulation of Ang-II. ERK1/2 serves as the center of signal control during the cardiac hypertrophy.

conclusionThe ERK1/2 cooperates with GPCR and EGFR signaling, and promotes the occurrence and development of cardiac hypertrophy by regulating the expression and binding states of CTGF and EGFR. The study revealed a regulation model based on ERK1/2, suggesting that ERK1/2 signaling pathway may be an important control link for mitigation of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy treatment.
