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

Endothelial-mesenchymal transition (EndoMT) is a process in which endothelial cells lose their cell-type‑specific characteristics and gain a mesenchymal cell phenotype. The Notch signaling pathway is crucial in the regulation of EndoMT; however, its roles have not been fully studied in vivo. In a previous study, we reported the generation of transgenic mice with a floxed β-geo/stop signal between a CMV promoter and the constitutively active intracellular domain of Notch1 (IC-Notch1) linked with a human placental alkaline phosphatase (hPLAP) reporter (ZAP-IC-Notch1). In this study, we examined the results of activating IC-Notch1 in endothelial cells. ZAP-IC‑Notch1 mice were crossed with Tie2-Cre mice to activate IC-Notch1 expression specifically in endothelial cells. The ZAP-IC-Notch1/Tie2-Cre double transgenic embryos died at E9.5-10.5 with disruption of vasculature and enlargement of myocardium. VE-cadherin expression was decreased and EphrinB2 expression was increased in the heart of these embryos. Mesenchymal cell marker α-smooth muscle actin (SMA) was expressed in IC-Notch1‑expressing endothelial cells. In addition, upregulation of Snail, the key effector in mediating EndoMT, was identified in the cardiac cushion of the double transgenic murine embryo heart. The results of the present study demonstrate that constitutively active Notch signaling promotes EndoMT and differentially regulates endothelial/mesenchymal cell markers during cardiac development.
