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
BACKGROUND Acute myocardial infarction (AMI) reflects inherited susceptibility and inflammatory remodeling, but the cellular contexts linking genetic risk to disease remain unclear. MATERIAL AND METHODS We integrated a meta-transcriptome-wide association study (TWAS) with a human cardiac single-nucleus RNA-sequencing atlas contained 11 individuals (5 AMI and 6 donor) to identify genetics-informed cellular programs. Composite program states were defined by global score quartiles. A fixed 5-gene panel was evaluated for nucleus-level endocardial low-transcriptional-state (Endo_LTS) vs endocardial high-transcriptional-state (Endo_HTS) discrimination within the AMI endocardium using 5-fold leave-1-patient-out cross-validation. Functional follow-up used CRIM1 silencing in hypoxia-treated human induced pluripotent stem cell (hiPSC)-derived endocardial endothelial-like cells and complementary peripheral blood analyses. RESULTS The endocardium exhibited the most prominent infarction-associated increase in TWAS-anchored program activity, with expansion of program-high states and higher CytoTRACE scores. A consensus 5-gene panel (RPS8, PLEC, CFDP1, CRIM1, TNS2) was identified. Among 2163 AMI endocardial nuclei from 5 patients, the state classifier included 364 Endo_LTS and 751 Endo_HTS nuclei; 1048 Endo_MTS nuclei were excluded. Pooled out-of-fold ROC-AUCs ranged from 0.665 to 0.831. The panel also showed discriminatory value in an independent peripheral-blood AMI-vs-control cohort. CRIM1 was prioritized as a candidate linked to the remodeling program. CRIM1 silencing attenuated ACTA2/alpha-SMA, vimentin, LDHA, CCL2, and VEGFA and partially restored CD31, whereas TGF-ß remained elevated. CONCLUSIONS These findings identify a genetics-informed endocardial inflammatory remodeling state in AMI and define a 5-gene surrogate of its activated state. CRIM1 is prioritized as a candidate linked to selected inflammatory, metabolic, and structural outputs. Persistent TGF-b elevation after CRIM1 silencing argues against a simple linear regulatory model and indicates that further mechanistic validation is required.
