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

objectiveDoxorubicin (DOX)-induced cardiotoxicity limits the application of DOX in cancer patients. Currently, there is no effective prevention or treatment for DOX-induced cardiotoxicity. The cellular repressor of E1A-stimulated genes (CREG1) is a cardioprotective factor that plays an important role in the maintenance of cardiomyocytes differentiation and homeostasis. However, the role and mechanism of CREG1 in DOX-induced cardiotoxicity has not yet been elucidated.

methodsIn vivo, C57BL/6J mice, CREG1 transgenic and cardiac-specific CREG1 knockout mice were used to establish a DOX-induced cardiotoxicity model. H&E staining, Masson's trichrome, WGA staining, real-time PCR, and western blotting were performed to examine fibrosis and ferroptosis in the myocardium. In vitro, neonatal mouse cardiomyocytes (NMCMs) were cultured and stimulated with DOX, CREG1-overexpressed adenovirus, and small interfering RNA was used to establish CREG1 overexpression or knockdown cardiomyocytes. Transcriptomics, real-time PCR, western blotting, and immunoprecipitation were used to examine the roles and mechanisms of CREG1 in cardiomyocytes ferroptosis.

resultsThe mRNA and protein levels of CREG1 were reduced in the hearts and NMCMs after DOX treatment. CREG1 overexpression alleviated myocardial damage and inhibited DOX-induced ferroptosis in the myocardium. CREG1 deficiency in the heart aggravated DOX-induced cardiotoxicity and ferroptosis. In vitro, CREG1 overexpression inhibited cardiomyocytes ferroptosis induced by DOX, and CREG1 knockdown aggravated DOX-induced cardiotoxicity. Mechanistically, CREG1 inhibited the mRNA and protein expression of pyruvate dehydrogenase kinase 4 (PDK4) by regulating the F-box and WD repeat domain containing 7 (FBXW7)-forkhead box O1 (FOXO1) pathway. PDK4 deficiency reversed the effects of CREG1 knockdown on cardiomyocytes ferroptosis following DOX treatment.

conclusionCREG1 alleviated DOX-induced cardiotoxicity by inhibiting ferroptosis in cardiomyocytes. Our findings may help clarify the new roles of CREG1 in the development of DOX-induced cardiotoxicity.
