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

Background: Doxorubicin is an essential cancer treatment, but its usefulness is hampered by the occurrence of cardiotoxicity. Nevertheless, the pathophysiology underlying doxorubicin-induced cardiotoxicity and the respective molecular mechanisms are poorly understood. Recent studies have suggested involvement of cellular senescence. Objectives: The aims of this study were to establish whether senescence is present in patients with doxorubicin-induced cardiotoxicity and to investigate if this could be used as a potential treatment target. Methods: Biopsies from the left ventricles of patients with severe doxorubicin-induced cardiotoxicity were compared with control samples. Additionally, senescence-associated mechanisms were characterized in 3-dimensional dynamic engineered heart tissues (dyn-EHTs) and human pluripotent stem cell-derived cardiomyocytes. These were exposed to multiple, clinically relevant doses of doxorubicin to recapitulate patient treatment regimens. To prevent senescence, dyn-EHTs were cotreated with the senomorphic drugs 5-aminoimidazole-4-carboxamide ribonucleotide and resveratrol. Results: Senescence-related markers were significantly up-regulated in the left ventricles of patients with doxorubicin-induced cardiotoxicity. Treatment of dyn-EHTs resulted in up-regulation of similar senescence markers as seen in the patients, accompanied by tissue dilatation, decreased force generation, and increased troponin release. Treatment with senomorphic drugs led to decreased expression of senescence-associated markers, but this was not accompanied by improved function. Conclusions: Senescence was observed in the hearts of patients with severe doxorubicin-induced cardiotoxicity, and this phenotype can be modeled in vitro by exposing dyn-EHTs to repeated clinically relevant doses of doxorubicin. The senomorphic drugs 5-aminoimidazole-4-carboxamide ribonucleotide and resveratrol prevent senescence but do not result in functional improvements. These findings suggest that preventing senescence by using a senomorphic during doxorubicin administration might not prevent cardiotoxicity.
