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

objectivePeripheral blood CD34(+) cells from diabetic patients demonstrate reduced vascular reparative function due to decreased proliferation and diminished migratory prowess, largely resulting from decreased nitric oxide (NO) bioavailability. The level of TGF-beta, a key factor that modulates stem cell quiescence, is increased in the serum of type 2 diabetic patients. We asked whether transient TGF-beta1 inhibition in CD34(+) cells would improve their reparative ability. RESEARCH DESIGN AND

methodsTo inhibit TGF-beta1 protein expression, CD34(+) cells were treated ex vivo with antisense phosphorodiamidate morpholino oligomers (TGF-beta1-PMOs) and analyzed for cell surface CXCR4 expression, cell survival in the absence of added growth factors, SDF-1-induced migration, NO release, and in vivo retinal vascular reparative ability.

resultsTGF-beta1-PMO treatment of diabetic CD34(+) cells resulted in increased expression of CXCR4, enhanced survival in the absence of growth factors, and increased migration and NO release as compared with cells treated with control PMO. Using a retinal ischemia reperfusion injury model in mice, we observed that recruitment of diabetic CD34(+) cells to injured acellular retinal capillaries was greater after TGF-beta1-PMO treatment compared with control PMO-treated cells.

conclusionsTransient inhibition of TGF-beta1 may represent a promising therapeutic strategy for restoring the reparative capacity of dysfunctional diabetic CD34(+) cells.
