Defining the Role of the miR-145-KLF4-αSMA Axis in Mitral Valvular Interstitial Cell Activation in Myxomatous Mitral Valve Prolapse Using the Canine Model.
Article in International journal of molecular sciences, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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.
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
Mitral valve prolapse (MVP) is a common valvular disease, affecting 2-3% of the adult human population and is a degenerative condition. A total of 5-10% of the afflicted will develop severe mitral regurgitation, cardiac dysfunction, congestive heart failure, and sudden cardiac death. Naturally occurring myxomatous MVP in dogs closely resembles MVP in humans structurally, and functional consequences are similar. In both species, valvular interstitial cells (VICs) in affected valves exhibit phenotype consistent with activated myofibroblasts with increased alpha-smooth muscle actin (αSMA) expression. Using VICs collected from normal and MVP-affected valves of dogs, we analyzed the miRNA expression profile of the cells and their associated small extracellular vesicles (sEV) using RNA sequencing to understand the role of non-coding RNAs and sEV in MVP pathogenesis.
