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

BACKGROUND AND

aimsAlmost 30% of survivors of myocardial infarction (MI) develop heart failure (HF), in part due to damage caused by the accumulation of dysfunctional mitochondria. Organelle quality control through Parkin-mediated mitochondrial autophagy (mitophagy) is known to play a role in mediating protection against HF damage post-ischaemic injury and remodelling of the subsequent deteriorated myocardium.

methodsThis study has shown that a single i.p. dose (2 h post-MI) of the selective small molecule Parkin activator PR-364 reduced mortality, preserved cardiac ejection fraction, and mitigated the progression of HF. To reveal the mechanism of PR-364, a multi-omic strategy was deployed in combination with classical functional assays using in vivo MI and in vitro cardiomyocyte models.

resultsIn vitro cell data indicated that Parkin activation by PR-364 increased mitophagy and mitochondrial biogenesis, enhanced adenosine triphosphate production via improved citric acid cycle, altered accumulation of calcium localization to the mitochondria, and initiated translational reprogramming with increased expression of mitochondrial translational proteins. In mice, PR-364 administered post-MI resulted in widespread proteome changes, indicating an up-regulation of mitochondrial metabolism and mitochondrial translation in the surviving myocardium.

conclusionsThis study demonstrates the therapeutic potential of targeting Parkin-mediated mitophagy using PR-364 to protect surviving cardiac tissue post-MI from progression to HF.
