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

Protein quality control (PQC) plays a vital role in maintaining normal heart function, as cardiomyocytes are relatively sensitive to misfolded or damaged proteins, which tend to accumulate under pathological conditions. Ubiquitin-specific protease (USP) is the largest deubiquitinating enzyme family and a key component of the ubiquitin proteasome system (UPS), which is a non-lysosomal protein degradation machinery to mediate PQC in cells. USPs regulate the stability or activity of the target proteins that involve intracellular signaling, transcriptional control of inflammation, antioxidation, and cell growth. Recent studies demonstrate that the USPs can regulate fibrosis, lipid metabolism, glucose homeostasis, hypertrophic response, post-ischemic recovery and cell death such as apoptosis and ferroptosis in cardiomyocytes. Since myocardial cell loss is an important component of cardiomyopathy, therefore, these findings suggest that the UPSs play emerging roles in cardiomyopathy. This review briefly summarizes recent literature on the regulatory roles of USPs in the occurrence and development of cardiomyopathy, giving us new insights into the molecular mechanisms of USPs in different cardiomyopathy and potential preventive strategies for cardiomyopathy.
