Effects of Sarcomere Activators and Inhibitors Targeting Myosin Cross-Bridges on Ca
Article in Molecular pharmacology, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
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.
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 isoform shifts in sarcomeres of the immature heart modify the effect of cardiac myosin-directed sarcomere inhibitors and activators. Omecamtiv mecarbil (OM) activates tension and is in clinical trials for the treatment of adult acute and chronic heart failure. Mavacamten (Mava) inhibits tension and is in clinical trials to relieve hypercontractility and outflow obstruction in advanced genetic hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM), which is often linked to mutations in sarcomeric proteins. To address the effect of these agents in developing sarcomeres, we isolated heart fiber bundles, extracted membranes with Triton X-100, and measured tension developed over a range of Ca
