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

Inflammation and fibrosis are intertwined mechanisms fundamentally involved in heart failure. Detailed deciphering gene expression perturbations and cell-cell interactions of leukocytes and non-myocytes is required to understand cell-type-specific pathology in the failing human myocardium. To this end, we performed single-cell RNA sequencing and single T cell receptor sequencing of 200,615 cells in both human dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) and ischemic cardiomyopathy (ICM) hearts. We sampled both lesion and mild-lesion tissues from each heart to sequentially capture cellular and molecular alterations to different extents of cardiac fibrosis. By which, left (lesion) and right ventricle (mild-lesion) for DCM hearts were harvest while infarcted (lesion) and non-infarcted area (mild-lesion) were dissected from ICM hearts. A novel transcription factor AEBP1 was identified as a crucial cardiac fibrosis regulator in ACTA2
