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
Sorting nexins (SNXs) as the key regulators of sorting cargo proteins are involved in diverse diseases. SNXs can form the specific reverse vesicle transport complex (SNXs-retromer) with vacuolar protein sortings (VPSs) to sort and modulate recovery and degradation of cargo proteins. Our previous study has shown that SNX3-retromer promotes both STAT3 activation and nuclear translocation in cardiomyocytes, suggesting that SNX3 might be a critical regulator in the heart. In this study we investigated the role of SNX3 in the development of pathological cardiac hypertrophy and heart failure. We generated abdominal aortic constriction (AAC) rat model and transverse aortic constriction (TAC) mouse model; hypertrophic neonatal rat cardiomyocytes (NRCMs) were induced by exposure to isoproterenol (10 μM). We showed that the expression of SNX3 was significantly upregulated in ISO-treated NRCMs and in the failing heart of AAC rats. Overexpression of SNX3 by intramyocardial injection of Ad-SNX3 induced heart failure in rats, and increased the susceptibility of NRCMs to ISO-induced myocardial injury in vitro. In contrast, conditional knockout of SNX3 in cardiac tissue in mice rescued the detrimental heart function in TAC mice, and knockdown of SNX3 protected against ISO-induced injury in NRCMs and AAC rats. We then conducted immunoprecipitation-based mass spectrometry and localized surface plasmon resonance, and demonstrated a direct interaction between SNX3-retromer and high mobility group box 1 (HMGB1), which mediated the efflux of nuclear HMGB1. Moreover, overexpression of HMGB1 in NRCMs inhibited the pro-hypertrophic effects of SNX3, whereas knockdown of HMGB1 abolished the protective effect of SNX3-deficiency. These results suggest that HMGB1 might be a direct cargo protein of SNX3-retromer, and its interaction with SNX3 promotes its efflux from the nucleus, leading to the pathological development of heart failure.
