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

Cardiovascular risk factors can negatively influence late endothelial progenitor cell (EPCs) number and functions, thus EPCs biology is a clinical implications for cardiovascular diseases. The present study aimed to investigate the potential protective effects of resveratrol (RES) on tumor necrosis factor (TNF)‑α‑induced inflammatory damage in late endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs) and to elucidate the underlying mechanisms. Late EPCs at passages 3‑5 were pretreated with RES at a concentration of 20 µmol/l for 12 h and subsequently incubated with TNF‑α (10 ng/ml) for 24 h. The adhesion, migration, proliferation and vasculogenesis of EPCs were subsequently detected. Furthermore, the mRNA expression levels of intercellular adhesion molecule‑1 (ICAM‑1) and monocyte chemoattractant protein‑1 (MCP‑1) were measured by reverse transcription‑quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT‑qPCR). Nitric oxide (NO) levels in the supernatant were determined using a colorimetric assay kit. Additionally, the mRNA and protein expression of Krüppel‑like factor‑2 (KLF2) was determined by RT‑qPCR and western blot analysis, respectively. The results indicated that TNF‑α markedly inhibited the proliferation, adhesion, migration and vasculogenesis of late EPCs. However, RES ameliorated the effects induced by TNF‑α. Furthermore, exposure of EPCs to TNF‑α decreased the levels of NO secretion and KLF2 expression at the mRNA and protein levels, but upregulated the levels of inflammatory factors, including ICAM‑1 and MCP‑1, compared with the control group. RES significantly inhibited TNF‑α‑induced inflammatory damage through upregulation of KLF2 expression and downregulation of the expression of ICAM‑1 and MCP‑1. In conclusion, RES may exert protective effects on the cardiovascular system, as demonstrated by the amelioration of TNF-α-induced inflammation in EPCs following RES treatment, and may therefore be used in the future for the prevention of cardiovascular disease.
