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

Pulmonary microvascular endothelial cells (PMVECs) are critically involved in the pathogenesis of acute lung injury. Hedgehog signaling pathway plays a fundamental role in embryonic development as well as adult morphogenesis and carcinogenesis. As the priming protein of hedgehog signaling pathway, sonic hedgehog (Shh) may recently be advantage for decreasing endothelial injury and promoting the repair of endothelial barrier function. To investigate the expression and role of hedgehog signal pathway in PMVECs injured by lipopolysaccharide (LPS), cells were divided into six groups: control group, LPS group, rhShh group, LPS+rhShh group, rhShh+cyclopamine group, and LPS+rhShh+cyclopamine group. Real time RT-PCR and Western blotting were used to detect the mRNA and protein expression of hedgehog signal molecules including Shh, Patched-1 (Ptc-1) and Gli1 in nucleus. The activity of PMVECs was examined by 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT) assay. In this study, we found that Shh, Ptch1, and Gli1 were expressed in rat PMVECs and their expression decreased when cells were treated by LPS. In the other hand, LPS inhibited the activity of rat PMVECs and caused the cells injury. Activation of Hedgehog signaling pathway by Shh could elevate the activity of PMVECs with pretreatment by LPS. Therefore, hedgehog signaling pathway should play a protective role on injury PMVECs by LPS.
