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

Hemangiomas are angiogenesis-dependent benign vascular tumors that can rupture and cause intracranial hemorrhages. We previously showed that the transcription factor homeobox A5 (HoxA5), which is absent in activated angiogenic endothelial cells can block angiogenesis. Here, we investigated whether restoring expression of HoxA5 blocks hemangioma growth by transplanting mouse hemangioendothelioma endothelial cells (EOMA) or HoxA5-expressing EOMA cells into the brains of mice. The EOMA cells induced brain hemangiomas characterized by large cystlike spaces lined by thin walls of endothelial cells surrounded by scant smooth muscle cells. When HoxA5-expressing EOMA cells were injected, lesion volumes were reduced between 5- and 20-fold compared with the EOMA control group (p < 0.05). Restoration of HoxA5 was associated with increased thrombospondin-2, which inhibits angiogenesis and reduced hypoxia-inducible factor 1alpha expression. These data suggest that restoring HoxA5 can attenuate experimental brain hemangioma development.
