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

Atherosclerotic lesions develop and progress more rapidly in diabetic patients than in nondiabetic individuals. This may be caused by accelerated lesion formation in the high-glucose environment of diabetes. Smooth muscle cells (SMCs) cultured in high glucose are more responsive to growth factors such as insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1). This enhanced response to IGF-1 is due in part to increased activation of the alpha(V)beta(3) integrin. We tested whether alpha(V)beta(3) integrin activation was increased in diabetic animals and whether an antibody to beta(3) would inhibit IGF-1 action and development of atherosclerosis. Eight male pigs were made diabetic with streptozotocin and fed a high-fat diet. A F(ab)(2) antibody fragment directed at beta(3) was infused into one femoral artery, whereas the other artery received control F(ab)(2) for 3.5 months. There was a 65 +/- 8% reduction in atherosclerotic lesion area in the arteries treated with F(ab)(2) antibody to beta(3). Phosphorylation of beta(3) was reduced by 75 +/- 18% in vessels treated with the antibody. Shc and mitogen-activated protein kinase phosphorylation, which are required for IGF-1-stimulated SMC proliferation, were also significantly reduced. We conclude that activation of IGF-1 receptor and alpha(V)beta(3)-linked signaling pathways accelerates atherosclerosis in diabetes and that administration of an antibody to beta(3) to diabetic pigs inhibits alpha(V)beta(3) activation, IGF-1-stimulated signaling, and atherosclerotic lesion development. This approach offers a potential therapeutic approach to the treatment of this disorder.
