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

Rnd3 is a small Rho-GTPase that has been implicated in various cardiovascular diseases. Yet, its role in diabetes-induced cardiomyocyte senescence remains unknown. Here we tested the role of Rnd3 in cardiomyocyte senescence and diabetic cardiomyopathy (DCM). The expression of Rnd3 was found to be reduced in peripheral blood mononuclear cells from diabetic patients and correlated negatively with age but positively with cardiac function. In 96-week-old Sprague Dawley (SD) rats, cardiac function was impaired, accompanied by an increased number of SA-β-gal-positive cells and elevated levels of the senescence-associated secretory phenotype (SASP) related factors, compared to those of 12-week-old rats. Diabetes and high glucose (HG, 35 mmol/L D-glucose) suppressed Rnd3 expression in cardiomyocytes and induced cardiomyocyte senescence. The deficiency of Rnd3 exacerbated cardiomyocyte senescence in vitro and in vivo. MicroRNA sequencing in AC16 cells identified a conserved miR-103a-3p (present in humans and rats) as a key HG-upregulated microRNA that bound to the Rnd3 3'-UTR. In cultured cardiomyocytes, miR-103a-3p inhibitors antagonized HG-induced cardiomyocyte senescence dependent on Rnd3 expression. Treatment with AAV9 vectors carrying miR-103a-3p sponges and Rnd3-overexpressing plasmids alleviated cardiomyocyte senescence and restored cardiac function in diabetic SD rats. HG stimulation increased STAT3 (Tyr705) phosphorylation and promoted its nuclear translocation in H9C2 cells, an effect exacerbated by Rnd3 knockout. Mechanistically, Rnd3 interacted with p-STAT3 in the cytoplasm, facilitating proteasome-mediated ubiquitination and p-STAT3 degradation. The STAT3 inhibitor S3I-201 blocked HG-induced STAT3 activation and mitigated cardiomyocyte senescence. These findings suggest that diabetes induces cardiomyocyte senescence via the miR-103a-3p/Rnd3/STAT3 signaling pathway, highlighting a potential therapeutic target for DCM.
