Percutaneous coronary intervention causes a rapid but transient mobilisation of CD34(+)CD45(-) cells.
Article in Open heart. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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.
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
objectiveCirculating CD34(+)CD45(-) cell concentrations are increased in patients with coronary artery disease, however their pathophysiological significance is unknown. We determined CD34(+)CD45(-) cell concentrations following percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in order to explore their role in acute vascular injury.
methodsIn a prospective time-course analysis, we quantified using flow cytometry circulating CD34(+)CD45(-) cells, traditional CD34(+)VEGFR-2(+) putative endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs), CD14(+) VEGFR(-) 2(+)Tie-2(+) angiogenic monocytes and intercellular adhesion molecule expression (CXCR-4 and CD18) in patients, before and during the first week following diagnostic angiography (n=13) or PCI (n=23). Vascular endothelial growth factor-A (VEGF-A) and C reactive protein (CRP) were quantified by ELISA.
resultsUnlike diagnostic angiography, PCI increased circulating neutrophil and CRP concentrations at 24 and 48 h, respectively (p<0.002 for both). CD34(+)CD45(-) cell concentrations were unaffected by angiography (p>0.4), but were transiently increased 6 h following PCI (median (IQR) 0.93 (0.43-1.49) vs 1.51 (0.96-2.15)×10(6) cells/L; p=0.01), returning to normal by 24 h. This occurred in the absence of any change in serum VEFG-A concentration, adhesion molecule expression on CD34(+) cells, or mobilisation of traditional EPCs or angiogenic monocytes (p>0.1 for all).
conclusionsPCI transiently increases circulating CD34(+)CD45(-) cells, without increasing CD34(+) adhesion molecule expression or VEGF-A concentrations, suggesting that CD34(+)CD45(-) cells may be mobilised from the vessel wall directly as a result of mechanical injury. Traditional putative EPC and angiogenic monocytes are unaffected by PCI, and are unlikely to be important in the acute response to vascular injury.
