Implication of intracellular chloride channel in extracellular matrix remodeling in pressure-overloaded mice and patients with dilated cardiomyopathy.

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
Chloride intracellular channels (CLICs) are important in cardiac cellular physiology. We aimed to determine the pathophysiological roles of CLICs in the heart. For this, we analyzed CLIC expression in cardiomyocytes in a mouse transverse aortic constriction (TAC) model to induce cardiac hypertrophy and failure, as well as in ventricular myocytes from patients with dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) using single-cell RNA-sequencing. Single-ventricular myocytes were isolated from the left ventricular free wall of C57BL/6J mice after TAC (pre-TAC; Day 3 post-TAC; and Weeks 1, 2, 4, and 8 post-TAC). Gene expression was compared with data from sham controls. In mice, CLIC1 and CLIC4 expression significantly increased in Day 3 and Weeks 1, 2, and 4 post-TAC. CLIC5 expression showed an increase during all phases. Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes pathway analysis for genes associated with CLIC1, CLIC4, and CLIC5 revealed a strong association between focal adhesion activation and actin cytoskeleton regulation pathways linked to extracellular matrix (ECM) remodeling. CLIC1 and CLIC4 expression was also higher in cells from patients with DCM. Single-cell RNA-sequencing revealed the possible role of CLICs in myocardial ventricular remodeling linked to ECM, proposing their potential as therapeutic targets for cardiac hypertrophy and failure.
