Ischemia/hypoxia inhibits cardiomyocyte autophagy and promotes apoptosis via the Egr-1/Bim/Beclin-1 pathway.
Article in Journal of geriatric cardiology : JGC, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 papers.
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.
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
backgroundMyocardial injury caused by microvascular obstruction (MVO) is characterized by persistent ischemia/hypoxia (IH) of cardiomyocytes after microembolization. Autophagy and Egr-1 were closely associated with various cardiovascular diseases, including MVO. Bim and Beclin-1 are the important genes for autophagy and apoptosis. We aimed to explore whether the Egr-1/Bim/Beclin-1 pathway is involved in regulating autophagy and apoptosis in IH-exposed cardiomyocytes.
methodsNeonatal rat cardiomyocytes exposed to the IH environment
resultsIH exposure elevated Egr-1 and Bim expressions, and decreased Beclin-1 expression in rat cardiomyocytes. Egr-1 overexpression in IH-exposed cardiomyocytes significantly up-regulated the levels of Egr-1 and Bim, and down-regulated the level of Beclin-1. Egr-1 knockdown resulted in down-regulated expressions of Egr-1 and Bim, as well as up-regulated expression of Beclin-1. In addition, Egr-1 knockdown induced autophagy was suppressed by 3-MA treatments. TEM and autophagic flux experiments also confirmed that Egr-1 inhibited autophagy progression in IH-exposed cardiomyocytes. Egr-1 suppression protected cardiomyocytes from IH-induced injury, as evidenced by the positive correlations between Egr-1 expression and LDH leakage or apoptosis index in IH-exposed cardiomyocytes.
conclusionsIH-induced cardiomyocyte autophagy and apoptosis are regulated by the Egr-1/Bim/Beclin-1 pathway, which is a potential target for treating cardiomyocyte injury caused by MVO in the IH environment.
