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

Abnormal proliferation of vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMC) is a key feature of development of cardiovascular complications, atherosclerosis, and restenosis. Patients with diabetes have higher risk for restenosis after coronary angioplasty than nondiabetic patients due to hyperglycemia-induced release of cytokines such as TNF-alpha. However, the molecular mechanisms regulating VSMC proliferation remain unclear. Herein, we report that inhibition of the polyol pathway enzyme aldose reductase (AR) prevents high glucose (HG)- and/or TNF-alpha-induced VSMC proliferation by accumulating cells at the G1 phase of the cell cycle. Treatment of VSMC with AR inhibitor sorbinil prevented HG- as well as TNF-alpha-induced phosphorylation of retinoblastoma protein and activation of E2F-1. Inhibition of AR also prevented HG- and TNF-alpha-induced phosphorylation of cyclin-dependent kinase (cdk)-2 and expression of G1/S transition regulatory proteins such as cyclin D1, cyclin E, cdk-4, c-myc, and proliferative cell nuclear antigen. More importantly, inhibition of AR prevented the increased expression of E2F-1 and proliferative cell nuclear antigen in diabetic rat aorta. Treatment of VSMC with the most abundant and toxic lipid aldehyde 4-hydroxy-trans-2-nonenal (HNE) or its glutathione conjugate [glutathionyl (GS)-HNE] or AR-catalyzed product of GS-HNE, GS-1,4-dihydroxynonane, resulted in increased E2F-1 expression. Inhibition of AR prevented HNE- or GS-HNE-induced but not GS-1,4-dihydroxynonane-induced up-regulation of E2F-1. Collectively, these results show that AR could regulate HG- and TNF-alpha-induced VSMC proliferation by altering the activation of G1/S-phase proteins such as E2F-1, cdks, and cyclins. Thus, inhibition of AR may be a useful therapeutic approach in preventing vascular complications.
