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

Reactive oxygen species (ROS) have been implicated in vascular smooth muscle cell (VSMC) apoptosis, a hallmark of advanced atherosclerotic lesions. Transient oxidation and inactivation of protein-tyrosine phosphatases play a critical role in cellular response to ROS production. However, the function of leukocyte antigen-related (LAR) protein-tyrosine phosphatase in ROS signaling is not known. To determine the expression of LAR in ROS-induced apoptosis, we investigated hydrogen peroxide-induced cell death and signaling in aortic VSMCs from wild-type and LAR(-/-) mice. Histone-associated DNA fragmentation and caspase-3/7 activity were significantly enhanced, mitochondrial membrane integrity was compromised, and cell viability was significantly decreased following H(2)O(2) treatment in LAR(-/-) VSMCs compared with wild-type cells. Stronger and sustained increase in autophosphorylation and activity of Fyn, an Src family tyrosine kinase, was observed in LAR(-/-) cells compared with wild-type cells following H(2)O(2) treatment. LAR binds to activated Fyn in H(2)O(2)-treated VSMCs, and recombinant LAR dephosphorylates phosphorylated-Fyn in vitro. In addition, LAR deficiency enhanced H(2)O(2)-induced phosphorylation of Janus kinase 2 (JAK2), signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3), and p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK). PP2, a Fyn-specific inhibitor, blocked JAK2, STAT3, and p38 MAPK activation and significantly attenuated apoptosis induced by H(2)O(2). AG490, a JAK2-specific inhibitor, significantly attenuated H(2)O(2)-induced apoptosis, and blocked H(2)O(2)-induced activation of STAT3, but not p38 MAPK in both wild-type and LAR(-/-) VSMCs. Attenuation of Fyn expression by short hairpin RNA significantly decreased H(2)O(2)-induced downstream signaling and apoptosis in VSMCs. Together, these data indicate that LAR regulates Fyn/JAK2/STAT3 and Fyn/p38 MAPK pathways involved in ROS-induced apoptosis.
