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

backgroundCurrently, there are no therapies targeting specific pathogenic pathways in myocarditis. IL (interleukin)-1 blockade has shown promise in preclinical studies and case reports. We hypothesized that blockade of IL1RAP (IL-1 receptor accessory protein), a shared subunit of the IL-1, IL-33, and IL-36 receptors, could be more efficient than IL-1 blockade alone.

methodsWe induced coxsackievirus B3 (CVB3)-mediated or experimental autoimmune myocarditis (EAM) in BALB/c mice, followed by treatment with an Fc (fragment crystallizable)-modified mIgG2a mouse anti-mouse IL1RAP monoclonal antibody (mCAN10). Myocarditis severity and immune infiltration were assessed by histology and flow cytometry. Cardiac function was measured by echocardiography. We used spatial transcriptomics (Visium 10× Genomics) to compare the gene expression landscape in the hearts of mCAN10-treated versus control mice.

resultsIL1RAP blockade reduced CVB3 and EAM severity. In EAM, the treatment prevented deterioration of cardiac function, measured on day 42 post-disease induction (left ventricular ejection fraction: 56.5% versus 51.0% in isotype controls [

conclusionsBlocking IL1RAP reduces acute CVB3 myocarditis and EAM severity and preserves cardiac function in EAM. We conclude that IL1RAP blockade is a potential therapeutic strategy in viral and autoimmune myocarditis.
