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

Peroxiredoxins, a group of antioxidant protein enzymes (PRDX1 to 6), are reported as antiatherogenic factors in animals; however, human studies are lacking. The present work aims to provide baseline data regarding the phenotype of PRDX1, 2, 4, and 6 in diabetic patients with peripheral atherosclerosis disease (PAD) and their relation to endothelial dysfunction (ED) and disease severity. Plasma levels of PRDX1, 2, 4, and 6 and markers of endothelial dysfunction (ICAM-1 and VCAM-1) were measured using ELISA in 55 type 2 diabetic patients having PAD and 25 healthy subjects. Ankle-brachial index (ABI), body mass index (BMI), triglycerides (TG), total cholesterol, HbA1c, and insulin resistance (HOMA IR) were measured. PRDX1, 2, 4, and 6 levels were significantly higher in patients compared to controls (PRDX1 21.9 ± 5.71 vs 16.8 ± 3.9 ng/ml, P < 0.001, PRDX2 36.5 ± 14.83 vs 20.4 ± 8.61 ng/ml, P < 0.001, PRDX4 3,840 ± 1,440 vs 2,696 ± 1,972 pg/ml, P < 0.005, PRDX6 311 ± 110 vs 287.9 ± 114 pg/ml, P < 0.05). PRDX1 and PRDX4 correlated negatively with ABI (r = -0.273, P < 0.05 and r = -0.28, P < 0.05, respectively), while PRDX1 and PRDX2 correlated positively with HOMA/IR and TG (r = 0.276, P < 0.01 and r = 0.295, P < 0.01, respectively). ICAM-1 was associated with PRDX2 and log PRDX6 (r = 0.345, P = 0.0037 and r = 0.344, P = 0.0038). Our results provide strong links among PRDXs, ED, and severity of PAD in diabetic patients which warrants further evaluation to clarify whether high circulating levels of PRDXs are a consequence of chronic atherosclerotic disease or a predisposing factor for later cardiovascular events.
