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

Pressure overload-induced cardiac hypertrophy is a common cause of heart failure (HF), and emerging evidence suggests that excessive oxidized lipids have a detrimental effect on cardiomyocytes. However, the key regulator of lipid toxicity in cardiomyocytes during this pathological process remains unknown. Here, we used lipidomics profiling and RNA-seq analysis and found that phosphatidylethanolamines (PEs) and Acsl4 expression are significantly increased in mice with transverse aortic constriction (TAC)-induced HF compared to sham-operated mice. In addition, we found that overexpressing Acsl4 in cardiomyocytes exacerbates pressure overload‒induced cardiac dysfunction via ferroptosis. Notably, both pharmacological inhibition and genetic deletion of Acsl4 significantly reduced left ventricular chamber size and improved cardiac function in mice with TAC-induced HF. Moreover, silencing Acsl4 expression in cultured neonatal rat ventricular myocytes was sufficient to inhibit hypertrophic stimulus‒induced cell growth. Mechanistically, we found that Acsl4-dependent ferroptosis activates the pyroptotic signaling pathway, which leads to increased production of the proinflammatory cytokine IL-1β, and neutralizing IL-1β improved cardiac function in Acsl4 transgenic mice following TAC. These results indicate that ACSL4 plays an essential role in the heart during pressure overload‒induced cardiac remodeling via ferroptosis-induced pyroptotic signaling. Together, these findings provide compelling evidence that targeting the ACSL4-ferroptosis-pyroptotic signaling cascade may provide a promising therapeutic strategy for preventing heart failure.
