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

aimsAtherosclerosis is the most common cause of cardiovascular disease, such as myocardial infarction and stroke. Previous study revealed that microRNA (miR)-134 promotes lipid accumulation and proinflammatory cytokine secretion through angiopoietin-like 4 (ANGPTL4)/lipid lipoprotein (LPL) signaling in THP-1 macrophages.

methodsApoE KO male mice on a C57BL/6 background were fed a high-fat/high-cholesterol Western diet, from 8 to 16 weeks of age. Mice were divided into four groups, and received a tail vein injection of miR-134 agomir, miR-134 antagomir, or one of the corresponding controls, respectively, once every 2 weeks after starting the Western diet. After 8 weeks we measured aortic atherosclerosis, LPL Activity, mRNA and protein levels of ANGPTL4 and LPL, LPL/ low-density lipoprotein receptor related protein 1 Complex Formation, proinflammatory cytokine secretion and lipid levels.

resultsDespite this finding, the influence of miR-134 on atherosclerosis in vivo remains to be determined. Using the well-characterized mouse atherosclerosis model of apolipoprotein E knockout, we found that systemic delivery of miR-134 agomir markedly enhanced the atherosclerotic lesion size, together with a significant increase in proinflammatory cytokine secretion and peritoneal macrophages lipid contents. Moreover, overexpression of miR-134 decreased ANGPTL4 expression but increased LPL expression and activity in both aortic tissues and peritoneal macrophages, which was accompanied by increased formation of LPL/low-density lipoprotein receptor-related protein 1 complexes in peritoneal macrophages. However, an opposite effect was observed in response to miR-134 antagomir.

conclusionsThese findings suggest that miR-134 accelerates atherogenesis by promoting lipid accumulation and proinflammatory cytokine secretion via the ANGPTL4/LPL pathway. Therefore, targeting miR-134 may offer a promising strategy for the prevention and treatment of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease.
