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

The transcription factor, E2F, plays a critical role in the trans-activation of several genes involved in cell cycle regulation. Previous studies showed that the transfection of cis element double-stranded decoy oligodeoxynucleotides (ODNs) corresponding to E2F binding sites inhibited the proliferation of vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) and neointimal hyperplasia in injured vessels. We have developed a novel E2F decoy ODN with a circular dumbbell structure (CD-E2F) and compared its effects with those of the conventional phosphorothioated E2F decoy (PS-E2F) ODN. CD-E2F ODN was more stable than PS-E2F ODN, largely preserving its structural integrity after incubation in the presence of nucleases and sera. Moreover, CD-E2F ODN inhibited high glucose- and serum-induced transcriptional expression of cell cycle regulatory genes more strongly than PS-E2F ODN. Transfection of CD-E2F ODN resulted in more effective inhibition of VSMC proliferation in vitro and neointimal formation in vivo, compared with PS-E2F ODN. An approximately 40-50% lower dose of CD-E2F ODN than PS-E2F ODN was sufficient to attain similar effects. In conclusion, our results indicate that CD-E2F ODN may be a valuable tool in gene therapy protocols for inhibiting VSMC proliferation and studying transcriptional regulation.
