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

Pressure overload-induced cardiac hypertrophy, such as that caused by hypertension, is a key risk factor for heart failure. However, the underlying molecular mechanisms remain largely unknown. We previously reported that the valosin-containing protein (VCP), an ATPase-associated protein newly identified in the heart, acts as a significant mediator of cardiac protection against pressure overload-induced pathological cardiac hypertrophy. Still, the underlying molecular basis for the protection is unclear. This study used a cardiac-specific VCP transgenic mouse model to understand the transcriptomic alterations induced by VCP under the cardiac stress caused by pressure overload. Using RNA sequencing and comprehensive bioinformatic analysis, we found that overexpression of the VCP in the heart was able to normalize the pressure overload-stimulated hypertrophic signals by activating G protein-coupled receptors, particularly, the olfactory receptor family, and inhibiting the transcription factor controlling cell proliferation and differentiation. Moreover, VCP overexpression restored pro-survival signaling through regulating alternative splicing alterations of mitochondrial genes. Together, our study revealed a novel molecular regulation mediated by VCP under pressure overload that may bring new insight into the mechanisms involved in protecting against hypertensive heart failure.
