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

backgroundAspirin (ASA) is the most widely used medicine to prevent cardiovascular diseases; however, the mechanisms by which ASA exerts its anti-proliferative effect remain not fully understood. This study was designed to investigate whether miR-145 is involved in the regulation of vascular smooth muscle cells' (VSMCs) proliferation and to determine the anti-inflammatory effects of ASA via its regulation of CD40 to provide a new theoretical basis for the pharmacological effect of aspirin.

methodsThe TNF-α induced proliferation model of VSMCs was divided into different groups with or without aspirin. Cell proliferation was detected by EdU; Real-time PCR was used to detect the mRNA expression of miR-145, CD40, and Calponin, a VSMCs differentiation marker gene. Western blot was used to detect the protein expression of CD40; ELISA was used to determine the concentrations of the inflammatory cytokine IL-6 in cell supernatants.

resultsThe proliferation of VSMCs was stimulated by TNF-α and accompanied by decreased levels of Calponin. TNF-α also decreased the levels of miR-145 and increased the levels of CD40 and IL-6. Pretreatment with 20 μg/mL of aspirin in VSMCs could partially block the above-mentioned effects induced by TNF-α. The protective effects of ASA in VSMCs were reversed by a pretreatment with a miR-145 inhibitor. We also found that the expression of miR-145 in peripheral blood mononuclear cells in ischemic stroke patients was significantly increased after a 10-day treatment with aspirin.

conclusionmiR-145 is involved in the anti-proliferation and anti-inflammation effects of aspirin on VSMCs by inhibiting the expression of CD40.
