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

Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is one of the main causes of death in Saudi Arabia. Cardiac remodeling plays a critical role in the pathophysiology of heart failure. Major focus of our study was to identify crucial genes involved in the pathological remodeling of the heart caused by pressure overload. We utilized various in-silico tools to analyze and interpret microarray data obtained from the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database (GSE120739), including GEO2R analysis, Metascape analysis, WebGestalt analysis, and IPA (Ingenuity pathway analysis). Our findings indicate that certain genes, including Cartilage Oligomeric Matrix Protein (COMP), collagen type VIII alpha 1 chain (COL8A1) and Lysyl Oxidase (LOX) under the influence caused by knockdown of KDM3A, were down regulated by the extracellular matrix pathway. Moreover, genes, such as Acyl-CoA Thioesterase 1 (ACOT1) were up regulated by the fatty acid metabolism pathway. Overexpression of lysine-specific demethylase 3A (KDM3A) leads to the up regulation of fibrosis-related genes COMP, COL8A1, and LOX and the down regulation of ACOT1, result in enhanced fibrosis and heart failure. Our results suggest that COMP, COL8A1, LOX, and ACOT1 warrant further investigation in the development of cardiac fibrosis and as potential biomarkers for causing heart failure.
