Angiogenin and SDF-1α serum concentration in patients with systemic sclerosis in relation to clinical status.
Article in Archives of medical science : AMS, 2011. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers.
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.
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
introductionSystemic sclerosis (SSc) is a connective tissue disorder characterized by tissue hypoxia due to vascular changes and excessive fibrosis of the skin and internal organs. Damage to blood vessels and endothelium, as well as imbalance of vascular homeostasis, impairment of angiogenesis and vasculogenesis are observed in the course of the disease. The aim of the study was to investigate the pro-angiogenic factors angiogenin and SDF-1α in patients with SSc. MATERIAL AND
methodsSerum samples were collected from 50 patients with dSSc (diffuse SSc) and lSSc (limited SSc) and from 38 patients used as a healthy control group. We explored: 1) how the serum concentrations of SDF-1α and angiogenin differ in the investigated groups; 2) the correlation among chemokines in SSc and the duration of the disease, Raynaud's phenomenon, sclerosis of the skin and TSS (total skin score).
resultsPatients with SSc showed statistically significantly higher serum angiogenin concentration and there was no correlation between duration of the disease and Raynaud's phenomenon, skin sclerosis or TSS. There was also no difference or no correlation between serum level of SDF-1α and the investigated groups.
conclusionsThe increase in angiogenin concentration in the serum in patients with SSc may confirm endothelial damage caused by hypoxia and reduced vascular perfusion due to the course of SSc without contributing to compensatory revascularization.
