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

backgroundSTIM1 (stromal interaction molecule 1) is a calcium (Ca

methodsInducible myocyte-restricted STIM1-KD (STIM1 knockdown) was achieved in adult mice using an αMHC (α-myosin heavy chain)-MerCreMer system. Mechanical and electrophysiological properties were examined using echocardiography in vivo and optical action potential (AP) mapping ex vivo in tamoxifen-induced STIM1

resultsSTIM1-KD mice (N=23) exhibited poor survival compared with STIM1-Ctl (N=22) and Cre-Ctl (N=11) with >50% mortality after only 8-days of cardiomyocyte-restricted STIM1-KD. STIM1-KD but not STIM1-Ctl or Cre-Ctl hearts exhibited a proclivity for arrhythmic behavior, ranging from frequent ectopy to pacing-induced ventricular tachycardia/ventricular fibrillation (VT/VF). Examination of the electrophysiological substrate revealed decreased conduction velocity and increased AP duration (APD) heterogeneity in STIM1-KD. These features, however, were comparable in VT/VF(+) and VT/VF(-) hearts. We also uncovered a marked increase in the magnitude of APD alternans during rapid pacing, and the emergence of a spatially discordant alternans profile in STIM1-KD hearts. Unlike conduction velocity slowing and APD heterogeneity, the magnitude of APD alternans was greater (by 80%,

conclusionsIn an adult murine model with inducible and myocyte-specific STIM1 depletion, we demonstrate for the first time the regulation of spatially discordant alternans by STIM1. Early mortality in STIM1-KD mice is likely related to enhanced susceptibility to VT/VF secondary to discordant APD alternans.
