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

objectiveThe Ezrin-radixin-moesin-binding phosphoprotein 50 (EBP50) is a scaffolding protein known to regulate ion homeostasis in the kidney and intestine. Previous work showed that EBP50 expression increases after balloon injury in rat carotids. This study was designed to determine the role of EBP50 on vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMC) proliferation and the development of neointimal hyperplasia. METHODS AND

resultsWire injury was performed in wild type (WT) and EBP50 knockout (KO) mice. Two weeks after injury, neointima formation was 80% lower in KO than in WT mice. Proliferation of KO VSMC was significantly lower than WT cells and overexpression of EBP50 increased VSMC proliferation. Akt activity and expression of S-phase kinase protein2 decreased in KO cells resulting in the stabilization of the cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor, p21(cip1). Consequently, KO cells were arrested in G(0)/G(1) phase. Consistent with these observations, p21(cip1) was detected in injured femoral arteries of KO but not WT mice. No differences in apoptosis between WT and KO were observed.

conclusionsEBP50 is critical for neointima formation and induces VSMC proliferation by decreasing S-phase kinase protein2 stability, thereby accelerating the degradation of the cell cycle inhibitor p21(cip1).
