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

We tested the hypothesis that angiotensin II (Ang II)-induced cardiovascular complications are distinguished from what catecholamine-induced by their serum circulating biomarkers in rats. Infusion of Ang II (1.68 mg/kg/day) significantly increased systolic and diastolic blood pressure assessed at week one or later, accompanied by an increase of heart/body weight ratio. Noradrenaline infusion (5.40 mg/kg/day) produced a similar degree of hypertension, but did not increase heart weight. Ang II-, but not noradrenaline-induced hypertension was associated with a drastic upregulation of serum microRNA-30d (miR-30d) by hundreds of times, accompanied by an increase of miR-30d levels in the atrium but not in the ventricle. Ang II, but not noradrenaline, significantly increased mRNA of brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) in the atrium. Studies using rat neonatal cardiomyocytes in vitro demonstrated that BNP caused an increase of miR-30d when applied for 6 h or longer in the culture medium. In vitro application of Ang II increased the cell size, although BNP and miR-30d were unable to mimic the effect of Ang II. We conclude that serum circulating microRNA-30d is a sensitive biomarker for Ang II-induced cardiovascular complications. It is also postulated that Ang II-induced cardiomyocyte hypertrophy could be independent of miR-30d/BNP signaling pathways.
