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

Endothelial cell (EC) barrier function plays a prevalent regulatory mechanism for the integrity and homeostasis of blood vessels and modulates angiogenesis and immune responses. Cell adhesion molecules (CAMs) play a central role in the barrier function of ECs. Although Ig-containing and proline-rich receptor-1(IGPR-1) was recently identified as a novel CAM expressed in ECs, the molecular mechanisms underlying the function of IGPR-1 in ECs remain uncharacterized. In this report, we investigated the role of IGPR-1 in EC barrier function and the molecular mechanism of its activation in ECs. We demonstrate that IGPR-1 is localized to endothelial adherens junctions and, through trans-homophilic dimerization, regulates endothelial cell-cell adhesion and barrier function. Trans-homophilic dimerization of IGPR-1 stimulates the phosphorylation of serine 220 (Ser220), which is required for IGPR-1 to regulate endothelial barrier function and angiogenesis. Moreover, IGPR-1 chimera, which mimics the trans-homophilic dimerization of IGPR-1, induced a sustained phosphorylation of Ser220 upon stimulation with a ligand. Coordinated dimerization of IGPR-1 and its homophilic interaction modulates its adhesive function and Ser220 phosphorylation. This adhesive function of IGPR-1 contributes to the barrier function of ECs.
