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 infarction (MI) is a lethal disease that causes irreversible cardiomyocyte death and subsequent cardiovascular remodeling. We have previously shown that the administration of recombinant progranulin (PGRN) protects against myocardial ischemia and reperfusion injury. However, the post-MI role of PGRN remains unclear. In the present study, we investigated the effects of PGRN deficiency on cardiac remodeling after MI. Wild-type and PGRN-knockout mice were subjected to MI by ligation of the left coronary artery for histological, electrophysiological, and protein expression analysis. Cardiac macrophage subpopulations were analyzed by flow cytometry. Bone marrow-derived macrophages (BMDMs) were acquired and treated with LPS + IFN-γ and IL-4 to evaluate mRNA levels and phagocytic ability. PGRN expression was gradually increased in the whole heart at 1, 3, and 7 days after MI. Macrophages abundantly expressed PGRN at the border areas at 3 days post-MI. PGRN-knockout mice showed higher mortality, increased LV fibrosis, and severe arrhythmia following MI. PGRN deficiency increased the levels of CD206 and MerTK expression and macrophage infiltration in the infarcted myocardium, which was attributed to a larger subpopulation of cardiac CCR2
