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

Acute lung injury (ALI) is characterized by inflammatory disruption of the alveolar-vascular barrier, resulting in severe respiratory compromise. Inhibition of the intercellular messenger protein, Group V phospholipase A(2) (gVPLA(2)), blocks vascular permeability caused by LPS both in vivo and in vitro. In this investigation we studied the mechanism by which recombinant gVPLA(2) increases permeability of cultured human pulmonary endothelial cells (EC). Exogenous gVPLA(2) (500 nM), a highly hydrolytic enzyme, caused a significant increase in EC permeability that began within minutes and persisted for >10 hours. However, the major hydrolysis products of gVPLA(2) (Lyso-PC, Lyso-PG, LPA, arachidonic acid) did not cause EC structural rearrangement or loss of barrier function at concentrations <10 μM. Higher concentrations (≥ 30 μM) of these membrane hydrolysis products caused some increased permeability but were associated with EC toxicity (measured by propidium iodide incorporation) that did not occur with barrier disruption by gVPLA(2) (500 nM). Pharmacologic inhibition of multiple intracellular signaling pathways induced by gVPLA(2) activity (ERK, p38, PI3K, cytosolic gIVPLA(2)) also did not prevent EC barrier disruption by gVPLA(2). Finally, pretreatment with heparinase to prevent internalization of gVPLA(2) did not inhibit EC barrier disruption by gVPLA(2). Our data thus indicate that gVPLA(2) increases pulmonary EC permeability directly through action as a membrane hydrolytic agent. Disruption of EC barrier function does not depend upon membrane hydrolysis products, gVPLA(2) internalization, or upregulation of downstream intracellular signaling.
