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

WKYMVm hexapeptide has been identified as a strong FPR2 agonist through a library screening of synthetic peptides. The FPR2 has been reported to play a crucial role in inflammation and angiogenic responses via stimulation of chemotaxis, migration, cell proliferation, wound healing and vessel growth. Recently, the therapeutic effects of WKYMVm have been reported in various disease models. In cutaneous wound model in diabetic mice, WKYMVm facilitated wound healing processes by stimulating the formation of capillary and arteriole and re-epithelialization. In coronary artery stenosis model, WKYMVm coating on stent promoted re-endothelialization and lowered restenosis rate. In hindlimb ischemia mouse model, intramuscular injection of WKYMVm promoted homing of exogenously transplanted endothelial colony-forming cells and neovascularization, resulting in salvaging hindlimb. Furthermore, a single injection of WKYMVm encapsulated in poly (lactide-co-glycolide) microspheres was demonstrated to be as efficient as multiple injections of WKYMVm in restoring blood flow in hindlimb ischemia model. These observations may open up promising biomedical applications of WKYMVm for tissue repairs and regenerations.
