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

backgroundNeointimal hyperplasia limits the longevity of vascular interventions. Nitric oxide (NO) is well known to inhibit neointimal hyperplasia. However, delivery of NO to the vasculature is challenging. Our study aims to evaluate the efficacy of delivering NO to the site of injury using a permeable balloon catheter. Our hypothesis is that ultra-short duration NO delivery using a permeable balloon catheter will inhibit neointimal hyperplasia. MATERIALS AND

methodsTen-week-old male Sprague-Dawley rats underwent carotid artery balloon injury. Groups included: (1) control, (2) injury, (3) injury + periadventitial NO, and (4) injury + endoluminal NO via permeable balloon catheter. The catheter was inflated to 5 atm pressure for 5 min. Arteries were harvested 2 wk following injury. Morphometric assessment for neointimal hyperplasia and immunohistochemical staining for inflammatory markers were performed.

resultsInjury increased neointimal hyperplasia compared with control (intima/media area [I/M] ratio 1.07 versus 0.11, respectively, P < 0.001). Periadventitial delivery of NO reduced the I/M area ratio compared with injury alone (55% decrease, P < 0.001). Endoluminal delivery of NO also reduced the I/M area ratio compared with injury alone (65% decrease; P < 0.001). Both endoluminal and periadventitial NO affected the I/M ratio by reducing the intimal area (64% and 46%, respectively, P < 0.001) whereas neither affected the medial area. Periadventitial NO delivery increased lumen area (P < 0.05), whereas endoluminal NO delivery increased circumference (P < 0.05). Periadventitial NO delivery inhibited macrophage intimal infiltration compared with injury alone (P < 0.05).

conclusionsThese data demonstrate that short-duration endoluminal NO delivery via permeable balloon catheters inhibits neointimal hyperplasia following arterial interventions. Endoluminal delivery of NO could become a focus for future clinical interventions.
