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

Heart failure (HF) is characterized by global alterations in myocardial DNA methylation, yet little is known about the epigenetic regulation of the noncoding genome and potential reversibility of DNA methylation with left ventricular assist device (LVAD) therapy. Genome-wide mapping of myocardial DNA methylation in 36 patients with HF at LVAD implantation, 8 patients at LVAD explantation, and 7 nonfailing (NF) donors using a high-density bead array platform identified 2,079 differentially methylated positions (DMPs) in ischemic cardiomyopathy (ICM) and 261 DMPs in nonischemic cardiomyopathy (NICM). LVAD support resulted in normalization of 3.2% of HF-associated DMPs. Methylation-expression correlation analysis yielded several protein-coding genes that are hypomethylated and upregulated (HTRA1, FBXO16, EFCAB13, and AKAP13) or hypermethylated and downregulated (TBX3) in HF. A potentially novel cardiac-specific super-enhancer long noncoding RNA (lncRNA) (LINC00881) is hypermethylated and downregulated in human HF. LINC00881 is an upstream regulator of sarcomere and calcium channel gene expression including MYH6, CACNA1C, and RYR2. LINC00881 knockdown reduces peak calcium amplitude in the beating human induced pluripotent stem cell-derived cardiomyocytes (hiPSC-CMs). These data suggest that HF-associated changes in myocardial DNA methylation within coding and noncoding genomes are minimally reversible with mechanical unloading. Epigenetic reprogramming strategies may be necessary to achieve sustained clinical recovery from heart failure.
