Tumor necrosis factor inhibition increases the revascularization of ischemic hind-limbs in diabetic mice.

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
Tumor necrosis factor (TNF) is first identified as a mediator of lethal endotoxin poisoning. The anti-TNF therapy in the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis is based on the recognition of the role of TNF as the master regulator. Type II diabetes is characterized with altered stem cells and reduced vasculogenesis. Therefore, we aimed to determine if TNF inhibitor would improve vasculogenesis in ischemic hind-limbs of diabetic mice. Fifty male type 2 diabetic and their control (8-10 weeks old mice) were used, and ischemia was induced in the hind-limbs of all mice for 28 days. Vessel density was assessed by high-definition microangiography at the end of the treatment period. After 4 weeks, vessel density displayed no difference between the ischemic and the non-ischemic legs in control mice. However, in diabetic mice, the ischemic hind-limb vessel density was significantly decreased. Interestingly, diabetic mice displayed a significant improved vasculogenesis when treated with TNF inhibitor. Moreover, this data was confirmed by capillary density determined by immunostaining. TNF inhibitors are able to improve the formation of microvessels in response to ischemia in type 2 diabetes.
