MnTBAP increases BMPR-II expression in endothelial cells and attenuates vascular inflammation.
Article in Vascular pharmacology, 2016. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
aimsThe endothelium plays an important role during vascular inflammation. Previous data have demonstrated a high expression level of manganese-superoxide dismutase (MnSOD) in endothelial cells and suggested an important role of MnSOD in several cardiovascular diseases. Manganese (III) tetrakis (4-benzoic acid) porphyrin (MnTBAP) has been shown to mimic some of the effects of MnSOD and prevented the development of diabetes and obesity. However, its effect on vascular inflammation and the underlying mechanism is still unknown. METHODS AND
resultsLeukocyte adhesion was evaluated in-vivo and in-vitro using dynamic flow chamber and intravital microscopy in mice. Expression of adhesion molecules induced by TNFα and adhesion of leukocytes to the vessel wall were inhibited by MnTBAP. The anti-inflammatory effect of MnTBAP was partly mediated by up-regulation of the BMPR-II and Smad dependent pathway. Additionally, MnTBAP decelerated the turn-over of endogenous BMPR-II.
conclusionOur data demonstrate that MnTBAP activates Smad signaling, preserves the turn-over of BMPR-II and elicits anti-inflammatory effects in endothelial cells, partly mediated by BMPR-II. This finding suggests a potential therapeutic impact of MnTBAP in the treatment of vascular inflammation.
