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

Atrial fibrillation (AF) is an abnormal heart rhythm related to an increased risk of heart failure, dementia, and stroke. The distinction between valvular and non-valvular AF remains a debate. In this study, proteomics and metabolomics were integrated to describe the dysregulated metabolites and proteins of AF patients relative to sinus rhythm (SR) patients. Totally 47 up-regulated and 41 down-regulated proteins in valvular AF, and 59 up-regulated and 149 down-regulated proteins in non-valvular AF were recognized in comparison to SR patients. Moreover, 58 up-regulated and 49 significantly down-regulated metabolites in valvular AF, and 47 up-regulated and 122 down-regulated metabolites in persistent non-valvular AF patients were identified in comparison to SR patients. Based on analysis of differential levels of metabolites and proteins, 15 up-regulated and 22 down-regulated proteins, and 13 up-regulated and 122 down-regulated metabolites in persistent non-valvular AF were identified relative to valvular AF. KEGG pathway enrichment analysis showed the altered proteins and metabolites were significantly related to multiple metabolic pathways, such as Glycolysis/Gluconeogenesis. Interestingly, the enrichment pathways related to non-valvular AF were obviously different from those in valvular AF. For example, valvular AF was significantly related to Glycolysis/Gluconeogenesis, but non-valvular AF was more related to Citrate cycle (TCA cycle). Correlation analysis between the differentially expressed proteins and metabolites was also performed. Several hub proteins with metabolites were identified in valvular AF and non-valvular AF. For example, Taurine, D-Threitol, L-Rhamnose, and DL-lactate played crucial roles in valvular AF, while Glycerol-3-phosphate dehydrogenase, Inorganic pyrophosphatase 2, Hydroxymethylglutaryl-CoAlyase, and Deoxyuridine 5-triphosphate nucleotidohydrolase were crucial in non-valvular AF. Then two hub networks were recognized as potential biomarkers, which can effectively distinguish valvular AF and non-valvular persistent AF from SR samples, with areas under curve of 0.75 and 0.707, respectively. Hence, these metabolites and proteins can be used as potential clinical molecular markers to discriminate two types of AF from SR samples. In summary, this study provides novel insights to understanding the mechanisms of AF progression and identifying novel biomarkers for prognosis of non-valvular AF and valvular AF by using metabolomics and proteomics analyses.
