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

Exposure to cold environments is physiologically challenging, with extreme cold stress (ECS) impairing the function of the left ventricle (LV) of the heart. We aimed to determine the role and mechanism of action of the miR-499-5p/phosphofurin acidic cluster sorting protein 2 (PACS2)/transient receptor potential cation channel subfamily V member 1 (TRPV1) axis in ECS-induced cardiomyocyte injury and LV dysfunction. Mice were placed in a -20 °C chamber to simulate an extremely cold environment. MiR-499-5p overexpression in the mice decreased PACS2 levels, and mitochondrial function was inhibited in vivo following ECS. Inhibiting miR-499-5p enhanced PACS2 expression, thereby reversing the structural and functional LV deficits caused by ECS. Cardiac-specific Pacs2 knock-in restored the decreases in mitophagy and mitochondrial energy metabolism caused by ECS via enhancing endoplasmic reticulum-mitochondrial calcium flux through TRPV1, a nonselective calcium channel. The findings indicate targets for preventing cardiac disease during exposure to extremely cold environments.
