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

Inflammation and oxidative stress contribute to the pathology of many diseases, but specific therapeutic targets remain elusive. Oxidative stress, generated by excessive reactive oxygen species (ROS), promotes cardiovascular disease. However, the precise mechanism of how ROS deteriorate vascular function and promote vascular remodeling in vivo has not been clearly elucidated. Cyclophilin A (CyPA) is a 20 kD chaperone protein that is secreted from vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMC) in response to ROS, and stimulates VSMC proliferation and inflammatory cell migration in vitro and in vivo. CyPA (both intracellular and extracellular) contributes to inflammation and atherosclerosis by promoting endothelial cell (EC) apoptosis and EC expression of leukocyte adhesion molecules, stimulating leukocyte migration, enhancing T helper cell type 1 (Th1) responses, increasing proliferation of macrophages and vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMC), and increasing pro-inflammatory signal transduction in VSMC. We tested the hypothesis that CyPA contributes to cardiovascular diseases by analyzing several genetic interventions that include the CyPA knockout mouse and the CyPA overexpressing transgenic mouse (VSMC-Tg). CyPA plays a crucial role in VSMC proliferation/migration and inflammatory cell recruitment, resulting in cardiovascular diseases in vivo.
