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

Accumulating evidence suggests that AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) activation exerts anti-apoptotic effects in multiple types of cells. However, the underlying mechanisms remain poorly defined. The aim of the present study was to determine how AMPK suppresses apoptosis in endothelial cells exposed to hypoxia and glucose deprivation (OGD). AMPK activity, NF-kappaB activation, and endothelial cell apoptosis were assayed in cultured endothelial cells and mouse common carotid artery with or without OGD treatment. OGD markedly activated AMPK as early as 30 min, and AMPK activity reached maximal at 2 h of OGD. Endothelial apoptosis was not detected until 2 h of OGD but became markedly elevated at 6 h of OGD treatment. Furthermore, AMPK inhibition by Compound C or overexpression of dominant negative AMPK (AMPK-DN) exacerbated, whereas AMPK activation by pharmacologic (aminoimidazole carboxamide ribonucleotide (AICAR)) or genetic means (overexpression of constitutively active AMPK) suppressed endothelial cell apoptosis caused by OGD. Concomitantly, AMPK activation increased the expression of both Bcl-2 and Survivin, two potent anti-apoptotic proteins. Furthermore, AMPK activation significantly enhanced IkappaBalpha kinase activation, NF-kappaB nuclear translocation, and DNA binding activity of NF-kappaB. Consistently, selective inhibition of NF-kappaB, which abolished OGD-enhanced expression of Bcl-2 and Survivin, accentuated endothelial apoptosis caused by OGD. Finally, we found that genetic deletion of the AMPKalpha1, but not AMPKalpha2, suppressed OGD-enhanced NF-kappaB activation, the expression of Bcl-2 and Survivin, and endothelial apoptosis. Overall, our results suggest that AMPKalpha1, but not AMPKalpha2 activation, promotes cell survival by increasing NF-kappaB-mediated expression of anti-apoptotic proteins (Bcl-2 and Survivin) and intracellular ATP contents.
