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

Myocardial Brg1 is essential for heart regeneration in zebrafish, but it remains unknown whether and how endothelial Brg1 plays a role in heart regeneration. Here, we found that both brg1 mRNA and protein were induced in cardiac endothelial cells after ventricular resection and endothelium-specific overexpression of dominant-negative Xenopus Brg1 (dn-xbrg1) inhibited myocardial proliferation and heart regeneration and increased cardiac fibrosis. RNA-seq and ChIP-seq analysis revealed that endothelium-specific overexpression of dn-xbrg1 changed the levels of H3K4me3 modifications in the promoter regions of the zebrafish genome and induced abnormal activation of Notch family genes upon injury. Mechanistically, Brg1 interacted with lysine demethylase 7aa (Kdm7aa) to fine-tune the level of H3K4me3 within the promoter regions of Notch family genes and thus regulated notch gene transcription. Together, this work demonstrates that the Brg1-Kdm7aa-Notch axis in cardiac endothelial cells, including the endocardium, regulates myocardial proliferation and regeneration via modulating the H3K4me3 of the notch promoters in zebrafish.
