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

backgroundThe cellular mechanisms regulating branching and growth of the intersegmental vessels (ISVs) are not well understood. We have carried out studies demonstrating that Hedgehog (Hh) signaling is a major regulator of intersomitic vessel growth.

resultsInhibition of Hh activity by cyclopamine completely blocks formation of intersomitic vessels in the avian embryo. Examination of gene expression patterns in Hh-deficient embryos shows that components of the VEGF and Notch signaling pathways are down-regulated. However, we find no evidence that Notch signaling plays a significant role in regulation of intersomitic vessel growth. Indeed, it appears that Hh modulation of Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor, VEGF, is the primary regulator of growth of intersomitic vessels in the avian embryo.

conclusionsInhibition of the VEGF pathway results in absence of ISVs, whereas stimulation of VEGF expression leads to precocious branching of ISVs. These results demonstrate that Hh is an essential modulator of VEGF expression during developmental angiogenesis.
