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

backgroundCardiac-specific JDP2 overexpression provokes ventricular dysfunction and atrial dilatation in mice. We performed in vivo studies on JDP2-overexpressing mice to investigate the impact of JDP2 on the predisposition to spontaneous atrial fibrillation (AF).

methodsJDP2-overexpression was started by withdrawal of a doxycycline diet in 4-week-old mice. The spontaneous onset of AF was documented by ECG within 4 to 5 weeks of JDP2 overexpression. Gene expression was analyzed by real-time RT-PCR and Western blots.

resultsIn atrial tissue of JDP2 mice, besides the 3.6-fold increase of JDP2 mRNA, no changes could be detected within one week of JDP2 overexpression. Atrial dilatation and hypertrophy, combined with elongated cardiomyocytes and fibrosis, became evident after 5 weeks of JDP2 overexpression. Electrocardiogram (ECG) recordings revealed prolonged PQ-intervals and broadened P-waves and QRS-complexes, as well as AV-blocks and paroxysmal AF. Furthermore, reductions were found in the atrial mRNA and protein level of the calcium-handling proteins NCX, Cav1.2 and RyR2, as well as of connexin40 mRNA. mRNA of the hypertrophic marker gene ANP, pro-inflammatory MCP1, as well as markers of immune cell infiltration (CD68, CD20) were increased in JDP2 mice.

conclusionJDP2 is an important regulator of atrial calcium and immune homeostasis and is involved in the development of atrial conduction defects and arrhythmogenic substrates preceding paroxysmal AF.
