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

Cardiac stress leads to remodelling of cardiac tissue, which often progresses to heart failure and death. Part of the remodelling process is the formation of fibrotic tissue, which is caused by exaggerated activity of cardiac fibroblasts leading to excessive extracellular matrix production within the myocardium. Noncoding RNAs (ncRNAs) are a diverse group of endogenous RNA-based molecules, which include short (∼22 nucleotides) microRNAs and long ncRNAs (of >200 nucleotides). These ncRNAs can regulate important functions in many cardiovascular cells types. This Review focuses on the role of ncRNAs in cardiac fibrosis; specifically, ncRNAs as therapeutic targets, factors for direct fibroblast transdifferentation, their use as diagnostic and prognostic markers, and their potential to function as paracrine modulators of cardiac fibrosis and remodelling.
