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

objectiveThis study aims to explore the relationship between PBEF and VEGF and p-MLC and the mechanism of PBEF increasing permeability of endothelial cells in hypoxia/re-oxygenation.

methodsHypoxia/re-oxygenation model was established and PBEF siRNA was synthesized. According to the different HUVEC treatment, it can be divided into normal control group, PBEF siRNA group; hypoxia (20 hours) and re-oxygenation (3 h) group, hypoxia (20 h) and re-oxygenation (6 h) group, hypoxia (20 h) and re-oxygenation (9 hours) group, hypoxia (20 h)/re-oxygenation (12 h). The expressions of PBEF, VEGF and p-MLC were tested by RT-PCR and Western blot.

resultsThe mRNA and protein expression of PBEF in PBEF siRNA group were significantly lower compared to liposome group and the negative controls (P < 0.05). The expression of PBEF protein in hypoxia/re-oxygenation group was significantly higher than the normal control group. It increased in the 3 h of re-oxygenation group, peaked at 9 h, until 12 h started to decline (P < 0.05). When the PBEF gene was knockdown, the expression of VEGF and p-MLC in hypoxia and re-oxygenation are significantly lower.

conclusionsPBEF siRNA can effectively inhibit the expression of PBEF in endothelial cells. The expression of PBEF, VEGF and p-MLC were significantly higher in endothelial cell after Hypoxia/re-oxygenation. PBEF may change the permeability of endothelial cells by regulating the expression of VEGF and the phosphorylation of MLC.
