IFI-16 inhibition attenuates myocardial remodeling following myocardial infarction.
Article in iScience, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
Myocardial remodeling (MR) following myocardial infarction (MI) contributes to heart failure. Inflammation is a key determinant in cardiac remodeling, with potential prognostic improvements by inhibiting inflammatory factors. Pattern recognition receptors, including interferon gamma-inducible protein-16 (IFI-16), play significant roles in this process, yet its specific involvement remains underexplored. This study investigates IFI-16's role in initiating inflammation via the inflammasome and its direct interaction with galectin-3 protein post-MI. Elevated IFI-16 levels were observed in human and rat myocytes and a mouse MI model under hypoxic, nutrient-deprived conditions, correlating with increased inflammation-associated proteins. Suppression of IFI-16/IFI-204 using short hairpin RNA (shRNA) lentivirus or adeno-associated virus decreased inflammatory factor activation, thereby mitigating remodeling and enhancing cardiac function post-MI. Co-immunoprecipitation (coIP) and double-fluorescence staining confirmed IFI-16's ability to interact directly with galectin-3. These findings underscore IFI-16's critical role as a pro-inflammatory factor in post-MI MR, suggesting its inhibition as a potential therapeutic strategy.
