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

The barrier function of the endothelium is controlled by the second messengers Ca2+ and cAMP that differentially regulate the permeability of endothelial cells. The Ca2+-elevating agent thrombin has been demonstrated to increase endothelial permeability and to decrease cAMP levels as detected via enzyme immunoassays. To study the effects of thrombin on cAMP with high temporal resolution, we utilised the FRET-based cAMP sensor Epac1-camps in single intact human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs). In these cells, thrombin induced a delayed increase in [cAMP], initiating after about 40 s, with maximum cAMP levels after 130 s of thrombin application. This increase of cAMP levels was Ca2+-dependent, but did not require calmodulin (CaM). Pharmacological approaches revealed that phospholipase A2 (PLA2) activity and cyclooxygenase (COX)-mediated synthesis of prostaglandins was required for the thrombin-induced elevation of [cAMP]. Furthermore, preincubation of HUVECs with a prostacyclin-receptor antagonist significantly reduced the thrombin-induced increase in [cAMP]. We conclude that thrombin causes the synthesis of prostacyclin in endothelial cells and that the subsequent stimulation of Gs-coupled prostacyclin receptors then results in an increase in [cAMP].
