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

CyclinD1 over-expression is the key pathogenetic event underlying airway smooth muscle (ASM) proliferation. Human antigen R (HuR) is a ubiquitously expressed RNA-binding protein, and is known to regulate the expression of multiple cell cycle regulators. The aim of the study is to investigate whether HuR might also be involved in ASM proliferation. In cultured ASM cells, PDGF treatment induced a significant elevation of HuR expression at both mRNA and protein levels. Immunofluorescence analysis demonstrated PDGF might promote HuR translocation from nucleus to cytoplasma as well. RNA-interference of HuR effectively decreased PDGF-induced cyclinD1 over-expression in ASM cells. Furthermore, AMPK activation by AICAR could effectively decrease PDGF-induced HuR cytoplasmatic translocation, cyclinD1 expression and ASM cells proliferation. In conclusion, altered expression and activity of HuR might participate in PDGF-induced ASM cells cyclinD1 expression and proliferation. The effectiveness of AMPK activation indicated a novel intervention method for airway remodeling.
