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

introductionInsulin resistance (IR) is associated with multiple pathological features. Although p53- or TRIB3-orchestrated IR is extensively studied in adipose tissue and liver, the role of p53-TRIB3 axis in myocardial IR remains unknown, and more importantly target-directed therapies of myocardial IR are missing.

objectivesConsidering the beneficial effects of sulforaphane (SFN) on cardiovascular health, it is of particular interest to explore whether SFN protects against myocardial IR with a focus on the regulatory role of p53-TRIB3 axis.

methodsMouse models including cardiac specific p53-overexpressing transgenic (p53-cTg) mice and Trib3 knockout (Trib3-KO) mice, combined with primary cardiomyocytes treated with p53 activator (nutlin-3a) and inhibitor (pifithrin-α, PFT-α), or transfected with p53-shRNA and Trib3-shRNA, followed by multiple molecular biological methodologies, were used to investigate the role of p53-TRIB3 axis in SFN actions on myocardial IR.

resultsHere, we report that knockdown of p53 rescued cardiac insulin-stimulated AKT phosphorylation, while up-regulation of p53 by nutlin-3a or p53-cTg mice blunted insulin sensitivity in cardiomyocytes under diabetic conditions. Diabetic attenuation of AKT-mediated cardiac insulin signaling was markedly reversed by SFN in p53-Tg

conclusionOverall, these results indicate that inhibiting the p53-TRIB3 pathway by SFN plays an unsuspected key role in the improvement of myocardial IR, which may be a promising strategy for attenuating diabetic cardiomyopathy (DCM) in diabetic patients.
