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

The glucocorticoid receptor (GR) is a critical nuclear receptor that regulates gene expression in diverse tissues, including the heart, where it plays a key role in maintaining cardiovascular health. GR signaling influences essential processes within cardiomyocytes, including hypertrophy, calcium handling, and metabolic balance, all of which are vital for proper cardiac function. Dysregulation of GR activity has been implicated in various cardiovascular diseases (CVDs), highlighting the potential of GR as a therapeutic target. Remarkably, recent insights into GR's epigenetic regulation and its interaction with circadian rhythms reveal opportunities to optimize therapeutic strategies by aligning glucocorticoid administration with circadian timing. In this review, we provide an overview of the glucocorticoid receptor's role in cardiac physiology, detailing its genomic and non-genomic pathways, interactions with epigenetic and circadian regulatory mechanisms, and implications for cardiovascular disease. By dissecting these molecular interactions, this review outlines the potential of epigenetically informed and circadian-timed interventions that could change the current paradigms of CVD treatments in favor of precise and effective therapies.
