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

Accumulating studies have demonstrated that the dimethylarginine dimethylaminohydrolase/asymmetric dimethylarginine (DDAH/ADMA) system is a novel pathway for modulating nitric oxide (NO) production. The aim of this study was to investigate whether the protective effect of high density lipoprotein (HDL) on endothelial NO production was related to its effect on DDAH/ADMA pathway. Human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) were prior exposed to HDL (10, 50, or 100 μg/ml) for 1 h, and then incubated with oxidized low density lipoprotein (ox-LDL) (100 μg/ml) for 24 h. The cultured medium was collected for measuring the concentration of NO and ADMA. The cells were collected for measuring the mRNA and protein expression of DDAH-II as well as DDAH activity. HUVECs treated with ox-LDL (100 μg/ml) for 24 h significantly decreased the concentration of NO, the mRNA and protein expression of DDAH-II as well as DDAH activity and increased the level of ADMA. Pretreatment with HDL (10, 50, or 100 μg/ml) could counteract these changes induced by ox-LDL (100 μg/ml). HDL significantly increased the attenuated endothelial cell NO production induced by ox-LDL, which was attributed to its effect on DDAH/ADMA pathway.
