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

purposeThe mechanism of cardioprotection by Kv7.1-5 (KCNQ1-5) channels inhibition by XE991 is unclear. We examined the impact of administration time on the cardioprotective efficacy of XE991, the involvement of key pro-survival kinases, and the importance of the Kv7 subchannels.

methodsIsolated perfused rat hearts were divided into five groups: 1) vehicle, 2) pre-, 3) post- or 4) pre- and post-ischemic administration of XE991 or 5) chromanol 293B (Kv7.1 inhibitor) followed by infarct size quantification. HL-1 cells undergoing simulated ischemia/reperfusion were exposed to either a) vehicle, b) pre-, c) per-, d) post-ischemic administration of XE991 or pre-, per- and post-ischemic administration of e) XE991, f) Chromanol 293B or g) HMR1556 (Kv7.1 inhibitor). HL-1 cell injury was evaluated by propidium iodide/Hoechst staining. Pro-survival kinase activation of Akt, Erk and STAT3 in XE991-mediated HL-1 cell protection was evaluated using phosphokinase inhibitors. Kv7 subtype expression was examined by RT-PCR and qPCR.

resultsXE991, but not Chromanol 293B, reduced infarct size and improved hemodynamic recovery in all isolated heart groups. XE991 protected HL-1 cells when administered during simulated ischemia. Minor activation of the survival kinases was observed in cells exposed to XE991 but pharmacological inhibition of kinase activation did not reduce XE991-mediated protection. Kv7 subchannels 1-5 were all present in rat hearts but predominately Kv7.1 and Kv7.4 were present in HL-1 cells and selective Kv7.1 did not reduce ischemia/reperfusion injury.

conclusionThe cardioprotective efficacy of XE991 seems to depend on its presence during ischemia and early reperfusion and do not rely on RISK (p-Akt and p-Erk) and SAFE (p-STAT3) pathway activation. The protective effect of XE991 seems mainly mediated through the Kv7.4 subchannel.
