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

Investigations of regulated S-nitrosylation and denitrosylation of vasorelevant proteins are a newly emergent area in vascular biology. We previously showed that monocrotaline pyrrole (MCTP)-induced megalocytosis of pulmonary arterial endothelial cells (PAECs), which underlies the development of pulmonary arterial hypertension, was associated with a Golgi blockade characterized by the trapping of diverse vesicle tethers, soluble N-ethylmaleimide-sensitive factor (NSF)-attachment protein receptors (SNAREs), and soluble NSF-attachment proteins (SNAPs) in the Golgi; reduced trafficking of caveolin-1 (cav-1) and endotheial nitric oxide (NO) synthase (eNOS) from the Golgi to the plasma membrane; and decreased caveolar NO. We have investigated whether NSF, the ATPase involved in all SNARE disassembly, might be the upstream target of MCTP and whether MCTP might regulate NSF by S-nitrosylation. Immunofluorescence microscopy and Golgi purification techniques revealed the discordant decrease of NSF by approximately 50% in Golgi membranes after MCTP despite increases in alpha-SNAP, cav-1, eNOS, and syntaxin-6. The NO scavenger (4-carboxyphenyl)-4,4,5,5-tetramethylimidazoline-1-oxyl-3-oxide failed to affect the initiation or progression of MCTP megalocytosis despite a reduction of 4,5-diaminofluorescein diacetate fluorescence and inhibition of S-nitrosylation of eNOS as assayed using the biotin-switch method. Moreover, the latter assay not only revealed constitutive S-nitrosylation of NSF, eNOS, cav-1, and clathrin heavy chain (CHC) in PAECs but also a dramatic 70-95% decrease in the S-nitrosylation of NSF, eNOS, cav-1, and CHC after MCTP. These data point to depletion of NSF from Golgi membranes as a mechanism for Golgi blockade after MCTP and to denitrosylation of vasorelevant proteins as critical to the development of endothelial cell megalocytosis.
