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

Sustained neutrophilic inflammation is detrimental for cardiac repair and associated with adverse outcomes following myocardial infarction (MI). An attractive therapeutic strategy to treat MI is to reduce or remove infiltrating neutrophils to promote downstream reparative mechanisms. CDK9 inhibitor compounds enhance the resolution of neutrophilic inflammation; however, their effects on cardiac repair/regeneration are unknown. We have devised a cardiac injury model to investigate inflammatory and regenerative responses in larval zebrafish using heartbeat-synchronised light-sheet fluorescence microscopy. We used this model to test two clinically approved CDK9 inhibitors, AT7519 and flavopiridol, examining their effects on neutrophils, macrophages and cardiomyocyte regeneration. We found that AT7519 and flavopiridol resolve neutrophil infiltration by inducing reverse migration from the cardiac lesion. Although continuous exposure to AT7519 or flavopiridol caused adverse phenotypes, transient treatment accelerated neutrophil resolution while avoiding these effects. Transient treatment with AT7519, but not flavopiridol, augmented wound-associated macrophage polarisation, which enhanced macrophage-dependent cardiomyocyte number expansion and the rate of myocardial wound closure. Using cdk9-/- knockout mutants, we showed that AT7519 is a selective CDK9 inhibitor, revealing the potential of such treatments to promote cardiac repair/regeneration.
