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

Mutations to the sarcomere-localized cochaperone protein Bcl2-associated athanogene 3 (BAG3) are associated with dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) and display greater penetrance in male patients. Decreased protein expression of BAG3 is also associated with nongenetic heart failure; however, the factors regulating cardiac BAG3 expression are unknown. Using left ventricular (LV) tissue from nonfailing and DCM human samples, we found that whole LV BAG3 expression was not significantly impacted by DCM or sex; however, myofilament localized BAG3 was significantly decreased in males with DCM. Females with DCM displayed no changes in BAG3 compared with nonfailing. This sex difference appears to be estrogen independent, as estrogen treatment in ovariectomized female rats had no impact on BAG3 expression. BAG3 gene expression in noncardiac cells is primarily regulated by the heat shock transcription factor-1 (HSF-1). We show whole LV HSF-1 expression and nuclear localized/active HSF-1 each displayed a striking positive correlation with whole LV BAG3 expression. We further found that HSF-1 localizes to the sarcomere
