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

Doxorubicin (Dox) is a widely employed chemotherapeutic agent, but its use is clinically limited by dose-accumulative cardiotoxicity. More specifically, Dox induces oxidative stress and causes pro-apoptotic ceramide accumulation in cardiomyocytes (CMs). Acid ceramidase (AC) modified mRNA (modRNA) has been shown to reduce ceramide levels and protect the heart following ischemic injury; however, therapeutic modRNA applications have been hindered by the need for invasive delivery. Here, we present a platform for minimally intrusive transmission of modRNA to the heart. This CM-selective modRNA translational system (cmSMRTs) is encapsulated in lipid nanoparticles for intravenous (IV) delivery to enable systemic administration with high cardiac selectivity via microRNA-guided translational control (miR143 and miR122) to suppress off-target expression in other tissues, including tumors. In vitro, AC treatment preserved sarcomere structure, calcium handling, and mitochondrial function in Dox-treated human induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC)-derived CMs. Moreover, weekly IV delivery of this modRNA prevented cardiac dysfunction, fibrosis, and atrophy in chronic Dox-induced cardiotoxicity models. Notably, this cardioprotection is achieved without either compromising Dox's anti-tumor efficacy or producing overall toxicity. These findings establish cmSMRTs 143-122 as a minimally invasive, cardiac-selective mRNA therapy platform with strong potential to prevent chemotherapy-induced cardiotoxicity.
