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

Thrombin is a potent mitogen for vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs). CBP has been regarded as a potential therapeutic target on the basis of its ability to affect cell growth. Therefore we hypothesized that CBP mediates thrombin-induced proliferation of VSMCs. We constructed recombinant adenoviral vector that expresses four short hairpin RNA (shRNA) targeting rat CBP mRNA (CBP-shRNA/Ad). VSMCs were infected with CBP-shRNA/Ad and treated with thrombin. CBP level were analyzed by quantitative real-time PCR and Western blot. To evaluate VSMC proliferation, the cell cycle and DNA synthesis were analyzed by flow cytometry and (3)H-thymidine incorporation, respectively. CBP-shRNA/Ad infection inhibited thrombin-induced CBP expression in a dose-dependent manner concomitant with a decrease in the percentage of cells in the S phase and in DNA synthesis. These findings suggest that CBP plays a pivotal role in the S phase progression of VSMCs.
