Profiling Reduced Expression of Contractile and Mitochondrial mRNAs in the Human Sinoatrial Node vs. Right Atrium and Predicting Their Suppressed Expression by Transcription Factors and/or microRNAs.
Article in International journal of molecular sciences, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
(1) Background: The sinus node (SN) is the main pacemaker of the heart. It is characterized by pacemaker cells that lack mitochondria and contractile elements. We investigated the possibility that transcription factors (TFs) and microRNAs (miRs) present in the SN can regulate gene expression that affects SN morphology and function. (2) Methods: From human next-generation sequencing data, a list of mRNAs that are expressed at lower levels in the SN compared with the right atrium (RA) was compiled. The mRNAs were then classified into contractile, mitochondrial or glycogen mRNAs using bioinformatic software, RStudio and Ingenuity Pathway Analysis. The mRNAs were combined with TFs and miRs to predict their interactions. (3) Results: From a compilation of the 1357 mRNAs, 280 contractile mRNAs and 198 mitochondrial mRNAs were identified to be expressed at lower levels in the SN compared with RA. TFs and miRs were shown to interact with contractile and mitochondrial function-related mRNAs. (4) Conclusions: In human SN, TFs (MYCN, SOX2, NUPR1 and PRDM16) mainly regulate mitochondrial mRNAs (COX5A, SLC25A11 and NDUFA8), while miRs (miR-153-3p, miR-654-5p, miR-10a-5p and miR-215-5p) mainly regulate contractile mRNAs (RYR2, CAMK2A and PRKAR1A). TF and miR-mRNA interactions provide a further understanding of the complex molecular makeup of the SN and potential therapeutic targets for cardiovascular treatments.
