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

purposeThe goal is to identify thermal exposures capable of reducing or eliminating cell survival on expanded polytetrafluoroethylene (ePTFE), in an effort to develop a mild hyperthermia treatment of neointimal hyperplasia in ePTFE vascular grafts. MATERIALS AND

methodsViable and dead bovine aortic endothelial cells were quantified following different thermal exposure conditions: cells on collagen-coated ePTFE sheets or tissue culture polystyrene dishes were heated at 42° and 45°C to determine their thermal sensitivity on different surfaces, and cells cultured on collagen-coated ePTFE sheets were heated at 43-50°C for various durations, followed by incubation at 37°C for 0 and 20 h, respectively. Significant cell death was set to be 50%. Two types of cell death, apoptosis and necrosis, were distinguished by cell morphology and membrane integrity assessments.

resultsThe attachment and survival of cells on ePTFE sheets were more sensitive to inhibition by mild heating than those on tissue culture dishes. Exposure to 45°C for 90 min and 50°C for 30 min caused significant necrotic cell death on ePTFE (65% and 75%, respectively). A 37°C/20-h incubation following 30-min exposures at 47° and 50°C increased total cell death (necrosis + apoptosis) from 20% to 50% and 75% to 100%, respectively.

conclusionCells grown on ePTFE were more susceptible to mild hyperthermia-induced death, compared to those on tissue culture dishes. Significant cell death on ePTFE mainly via apoptosis can be achieved by optimising temperature and duration of exposure.
