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

Recent research suggests that microtubule-associated protein 1 light chain 3B (LC3B) confers protection against hypoxia-induced pulmonary hypertension (HPH) by inhibiting proliferation of pulmonary artery (PA) wall cells. We recently demonstrated that 17β-estradiol (E2), a sex hormone with known protective properties in HPH, increases lung LC3-II expression in chronically hypoxic male Sprague-Dawley rats. Stimulatory E2 effects on LC3-II were recapitulated in isolated hypoxic (1% O 2 for 48 h), but not room air-exposed primary rat PA endothelial cells (PAECs), and were accompanied by hypoxia-specific inhibitory effects on other parameters involved in proproliferative signaling (MAPK3/ERK1-MAPK1/ERK2 activation, VEGF secretion), as well as inhibitory effects on PAEC proliferation. Taken together, these results suggest that E2 mediates hypoxia-specific antiproliferative effects in PAECs, and that stimulation of autophagy may be one of the underlying mechanisms of E2-mediated protection in HPH. Viewed in the context of previously published data, these results indicate that LC3 1) exerts protective effects in the pathogenesis of HPH, and 2) may represent a potential target for future therapeutic interventions in HPH.
