Vascular endothelial effects of collaborative binding to platelet/endothelial cell adhesion molecule-1 (PECAM-1).
Article in Scientific reports, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 papers.
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
Targeting drugs to endothelial cells has shown the ability to improve outcomes in animal models of inflammatory, ischemic and thrombotic diseases. Previous studies have revealed that certain pairs of ligands (antibodies and antibody fragments) specific for adjacent, but distinct, epitopes on PECAM-1 enhance each other's binding, a phenomenon dubbed Collaborative Enhancement of Paired Affinity Ligands, or CEPAL. This discovery has been leveraged to enable simultaneous delivery of multiple therapeutics to the vascular endothelium. Given the known role of PECAM-1 in promoting endothelial quiescence and cell junction integrity, we sought here to determine if CEPAL might induce unintended vascular effects. Using a combination of in vitro and in vivo techniques and employing human and mouse endothelial cells under physiologic and pathologic conditions, we found only modest or non-significant effects in response to antibodies to PECAM-1, whether given solo or in pairs. In contrast, these methods detected significant elevation of endothelial permeability, pro-inflammatory vascular activation, and systemic cytokine release following antibody binding to the related endothelial junction protein, VE-Cadherin. These studies support the notion that PECAM-1-targeted CEPAL provides relatively well-tolerated endothelial drug delivery. Additionally, the analysis herein creates a template to evaluate potential toxicities of vascular-targeted nanoparticles and protein therapeutics.
