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

backgroundDoxorubicin (DOX) has limited chemotherapy application for malignancies due to cardiotoxicity. The pathogenesis of DOX-induced cardiomyopathy (DiCM) is yet to be elucidated. Increasing studies proved that activation of AKT prevented cardiomyocyte apoptosis and cardiac dysfunction in response to DOX insult. Our previous studies indicated that major vault protein (MVP) deficiency was accompanied by suppressed phosphorylation of AKT in metabolic diseases. This study aimed to investigate the role and underlying mechanism of MVP on cardiomyocyte apoptosis in DiCM.

methodsMice were intraperitoneally injected with DOX 5 mg/kg, once a week for 5 weeks, the total cumulative dose was 25 mg/kg. Cardiomyocyte-specific MVP overexpression was achieved using an adeno-associated virus system under the cTnT promoter after the fourth DOX injection. Cardiac function was examined by echocardiography followed by euthanasia. Tissue and serum were collected for morphology analysis and biochemical examination.

resultsHerein, we found that MVP expression was upregulated in DOX-treated murine hearts. Cardiac-specific MVP overexpression alleviated DOX-induced cardiac dysfunction, oxidative stress and fibrosis. Mechanistically, MVP overexpression activated AKT signaling and decreased cardiomyocyte apoptosis in DiCM.

conclusionsBased on these findings, we supposed that MVP was a potential therapeutic agent against DiCM.
