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

The functions of dual-specificity phosphatase 9 (DUSP9) in hepatic steatosis and metabolic disturbance during nonalcoholic fatty liver disease were discussed in our prior study. However, its roles in the pathophysiology of pressure overload-induced cardiac hypertrophy remain to be illustrated. This study attempted to uncover the potential contributions and underpinning mechanisms of DUSP9 in cardiac hypertrophy. Utilizing the gain-and-loss-of-functional approaches of DUSP9 the cardiac phenotypes arising from the pathological, echocardiographic, and molecular analysis were quantified. The results showed increased levels of DUSP9 in hypertrophic mice heart and angiotensin II treated cardiomyocytes. In accordance with the results of cellular hypertrophy in response to angiotensin II, cardiac hypertrophy exaggeration, fibrosis, and malfunction triggered by pressure overload was evident in the case of cardiac-specific conditional knockout of DUSP9. In contrast, transgenic mice hearts with DUSP9 overexpression portrayed restoration of the hypertrophic phenotypes. Further explorations of molecular mechanisms indicated the direct interaction of DUSP9 with ASK1, which further repressed p38 and JNK signaling pathways. Moreover, blocking ASK1 with ASK1-specific inhibitor compensated the pro-hypertrophic effects induced by DUSP9 deficiency in cardiomyocytes. The main findings of this study suggest the potential of DUSP9 in alleviating cardiac hypertrophy at least partially by repressing ASK1, thereby looks promising as a prospective target against cardiac hypertrophy.
