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

objectiveUsing a canine model of atrial fibrillation (AF) induced by chronic pacing of left atrial fibrillation, the present study aimed to investigate the protein expression and content change of Notch-1 and its downstream target genes including Hes1, Jagged1, and SERCA2a in the atrial myocardium of canines with chronic AF. Furthermore, the correlation between Notch-1/Hes1/Jagged1 and the SERCA2a calcium pump was also analyzed.

methodsTen healthy Beagle dogs including both males and females, aged 7-9 years were randomly divided into a sham group (n = 5) and AF group (n = 5). The AF group underwent minimally invasive surgery with implantation of a pacemaker into the left atrial appendage for induction of AF. After 8 weeks of pacemaker implantation, animals were euthanized and specimens from the right and left atrial free walls were excised for histologic and biochemical analyses.

resultsAfter 8 weeks' pacemaker implantation, immunohistochemical expression of Notch-1, Hes1, Jagget1 and SERCA2a in the sham group was positive. Compared with the sham operation group, the intensity of Notch-1, Hes1 and Jagget1 in AF group was stronger with a significant increasing trend in the intensity of the color, respectively. The expression of SERCA2a was weak; the intensity decreased significantly (P < 0.05). Pearson correlation analysis revealed that in the AF group, Notch-1 was negatively correlated with SERCA2a (r = -0.77, P = 0.028), and was positively correlated with Hes1 and Jagged1 (r = 0.92, P = 0.014; r = 0.73, P = 0.030) proteins, respectively.

conclusionThe activation of the Notch signaling pathway was associated with a decrease in SERCA2a protein expression and contributes to the development and maintenance of electrical remodeling in AF through modulation of calcium pump function and calcium homeostasis.
