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

purposeThis study aimed to explore the effect of microRNA (miR)-145 on cardiac fibrosis in heart failure mice and its target.

methodsExperiments were carried out in mice receiving left coronary artery ligation, transverse aortic constriction (TAC), or angiotensin (Ang) II to trigger heart failure, and in cardiac fibroblasts (CFs) with Ang II-induced fibrosis.

resultsThe miR-145 levels were decreased in the mice hearts of heart failure induced by myocardial infarction (MI), TAC or Ang II infusion, and in the Ang II-treated CFs. The impaired cardiac function was ameliorated by miR-145 agomiR in MI mice. The increased fibrosis and the levels of collagen I, collagen III, and transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-β) in MI mice were inhibited by miR-145 agomiR or miR-145 transgene (TG). The agomiR of miR-145 also attenuated the increases of collagen I, collagen III, and TGF-β in Ang II-treated CFs. Bioinformatics analysis and luciferase reporter assays indicated that mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase kinase 3 (MAP3K3) was a direct target gene of miR-145. MAP3K3 expression was suppressed by MiR-145 in CFs, while the MAP3K3 over-expression reversed the inhibiting effects of miR-145 agomiR on the Ang II-induced increases of collagen I, collagen III, and TGF-β in CFs.

conclusionThese results indicated that miR-145 upregulation could improve cardiac dysfunction and cardiac fibrosis by inhibiting MAP3K3 in heart failure. Thus, upregulating miR-145 or blocking MAP3K3 can be used to treat heart failure and cardiac fibrosis.
