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

Epigenetics refers to changes in phenotypes without changes in genotypes. These changes take place in a number of ways, including via genomic DNA methylation, DNA interacting proteins, and microRNAs. The epigenome is the second dimension of the genome and it contains key information that is specific to every type of cell. Epigenetics is essential for many fundamental processes in biology, but its importance in the development and progression of heart failure, which is one of the major causes of morbidity and mortality worldwide, remains unclear. Our understanding of the underlying molecular mechanisms is incomplete. While epigenetics is one of the most innovative research areas in modern biology and medicine, compounds that directly target the epigenome, such as epidrugs, have not been well translated into therapies. This paper focuses on epigenetics in terms of genomic DNA methylation, such as 5-methylcytosine (5mC) and 5-hydroxymethylcytosine (5hmC) modifications. These appear to be more dynamic than previously anticipated and may underlie a wide variety of conditions, including heart failure. We also outline possible new strategies for the development of novel therapies.
