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

Vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) switch from a contractile to a synthetic phenotype in human cardiovascular disease such as atherosclerosis and restenosis after angioplasty. VSMCs show reduced expression of contractile proteins and are capable of responding to mitogens by increasing expression of growth factor receptors. Fibroblast growth factor receptor-1 (FGFR1) signaling is one of several signaling pathways involved in this VSMC phenotypic switching. The aim of this study was to examine the signaling pathway downstream of FGFR1 in the regulation of SM marker gene expression. We found that FGFR1 activated Akt/mTOR pathway and that the mTOR inhibitor rapamycin partially reversed FGFR1-mediated downregulation of SM marker gene expression. Furthermore, we showed that mTOR forms a multi-protein complex with FGFR1 in VSMCs. These findings provide novel information for future development of therapeutic strategies for the treatment of human cardiovascular disease.
