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

Apolipoprotein A-I (ApoA-I) mimetic peptide inhibits the development of atherosclerosis (AS) in apolipoprotein E-deficient mice; however, the underlying mechanism remains unclear. Endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs) can prevent AS progression through repairing proatherogenic factors impaired endothelium. In the present study, we examined the effect of reverse D-4F, one of apoA-I mimetic peptide on the proliferation, migration, and tube formation of mouse bone marrow-derived late EPCs. The present study showed that reverse D-4F (10-100 μg/ml) significantly improved the proliferation, migration, and tube formation of EPCs in a dose-dependent manner, and activated phospho-AKT at serine residue 473 and phospho-eNOS at serine residue 1177. LY294002 (PI3-kinase inhibitor) and L-NAME (NOS inhibitor) significantly inhibited reverse D-4F mediated improvement of EPCs biological functions, and LY294002 significantly decreased reverse D-4F stimulated activation of phospho-AKT (473) and phospho-eNOS (1177). The results indicate that reverse D-4F mediated improvement of EPCs functions is dependent on the PI3K/AKT/eNOS pathway.
