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

Ischemia reperfusion (I/R)-induced arrhythmia is a serious complication in patients with cardiac infarction. Remodeling of connexin (Cx) 43, manifested as phosphorylation, contributes significantly to arrhythmogenesis. Integrin-linked kinase (ILK) attenuated ventricular remodeling and improved cardiac function in rats after myocardial infarction. We hypothesized that ILK, through Cx43 phosphorylation, would be protective against I/R-induced ventricular arrhythmias. Our study showed that I/R-induced ventricular arrhythmias were attenuated by an ILK agonist LPTP and worsened by the ILK inhibitor Cpd22. I/R disrupted Cx43 distribution, but it was partially normalized in the presence of LPTP. Compared with I/R, the phosphorylation of Akt was increased significantly after pretreatment with LPTP. The increase in phosphorylated Akt was physiologically significant because, in the presence of the Akt inhibitor MK2206, the protective effects of LPTP were blocked. This indicated that ILK activation prevented I/R-induced-ventricular arrhythmia, an effect potentially related to inhibition of Cx43 remodeling via Akt activation.
