Gene expression and ultra-structural evidence for metabolic derangement in the primary mitral regurgitation heart.
Article in European heart journal open, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Aims: Chronic neurohormonal activation and haemodynamic load cause derangement in the utilization of the myocardial substrate. In this study, we test the hypothesis that the primary mitral regurgitation (PMR) heart shows an altered metabolic gene profile and cardiac ultra-structure consistent with decreased fatty acid and glucose metabolism despite a left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) > 60%. Methods and results: Metabolic gene expression in right atrial (RA), left atrial (LA), and left ventricular (LV) biopsies from donor hearts ( Conclusion: The PMR heart has a global ultra-structural and metabolic gene expression pattern of decreased glucose uptake along with increased glycogen and LDs. Further studies must determine whether this presentation is an adaptation or maladaptation in the PMR heart in the clinical evaluation of PMR.
