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

aimsHeart failure (HF) is characterized by compromised cardiac structure and function. Previous work has identified a link between upregulation of pro-inflammatory cytokines and HF. Tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-like weak inducer of apoptosis (TWEAK) is a pro-inflammatory cytokine, which binds to fibroblast growth factor inducible 14 (Fn14), a ubiquitously expressed cell-surface receptor. The objective of this study was to investigate the role of TWEAK/Fn14 pathway in promoting cardiac inflammation under non ischemic stress conditions. MAIN

methodsWild type (WT) and Fn14 knock out (Fn14 KEY

findingsFn14 SIGNIFICANCE: Our findings support an important role for the TWEAK/Fn14 promoting macrophage infiltration and fibrosis in heart under non-ischemic stress, with potential for therapeutic intervention to improve cardiac function in the setting of HF.
