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

Nitric oxide (NO) is an endogenous second messenger which acts as a potent vasodilator, anti-inflammatory, anti-thrombotic and pro-angiogenic agent in the vasculature. Recent studies revealed that the effects of NO on blood vessels are mediated in part by its ability to regulate protein trafficking machinery and vesicle-based exocytosis in vascular cells. Specifically, NO-dependent S-nitrosylation of N-ethylmaleimide sensitive factor (NSF), an ATPase that enables membrane fusion, was shown to inhibit exocytosis of vesicular secretory compartments such as endothelial Weibel-Palade bodies, platelet alpha granules and cytolytic granules from activated lymphocytes. Tissue transglutaminase (tTG or TG2) is a multifunctional protein synthesized and secreted by various cell types in the vasculature, which is involved in multiple vascular diseases, including atherosclerosis, vascular calcification and age-dependent aortic stiffening. Our recent findings indicate that tTG is delivered to the cell surface and the extracellular matrix (ECM) via a non-classical ER/Golgi-independent secretion pathway, which depends on the recycling endosomes and the NSF function. Here we report that NO attenuates the unconventional secretion of tTG in human aortic endothelial cells. NO-dependent downregulation of extracellular tTG levels via inhibition of its secretion might be a part of general physiological mechanism which limits externalization of adhesive, pro-inflammatory and thrombogenic proteins in the vasculature.
