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

backgroundInflammation plays a critical role in adverse cardiac remodeling and heart failure. Therefore, approaches geared toward inhibiting inflammation may provide therapeutic benefits. We tested the hypotheses that genetic deletion of interleukin-10 (IL-10), a potent antiinflammatory cytokine, exacerbates pressure overload-induced adverse cardiac remodeling and hypertrophy and that IL-10 therapy inhibits this pathology. METHODS AND

resultsCardiac hypertrophy was induced in wild-type and IL-10 knockout mice by isoproterenol (ISO) infusion. ISO-induced left ventricular dysfunction and hypertrophic remodeling, including fibrosis and fetal gene expression, were further exaggerated in knockout mice compared with wild-type mice. Systemic recombinant mouse IL-10 administration markedly improved left ventricular function and not only inhibited but also reversed ISO-induced cardiac remodeling. Intriguingly, a very similar cardioprotective response of IL-10 was found in transverse aortic constriction-induced hypertrophy and heart failure models. In neonatal rat ventricular myocytes and H9c2 myoblasts, ISO activated nuclear factor-κB and inhibited signal transducers and activators of transcription 3 (STAT3) phosphorylation. Interestingly, IL-10 suppressed ISO-induced nuclear factor-κB activation and attenuated STAT3 inhibition. Moreover, pharmacological and genetic inhibition of STAT3 reversed the protective effects of IL-10, whereas ectopic expression of constitutively active STAT3 mimicked the IL-10 responses on the ISO effects, confirming that the IL-10-mediated inhibition of nuclear factor-κB is STAT3 dependent.

conclusionTaken together, our results suggest IL-10 treatment as a potential therapeutic approach to limit the progression of pressure overload-induced adverse cardiac remodeling.
