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

background and purposeNO-mediated, endothelium-dependent relaxations of isolated arteries are blunted by ageing and high-fat diets, as well as by apolipoprotein E deletion. The present study was designed to test the hypothesis that apolipoprotein E deletion impairs endothelium-dependent responses to prostacyclin (IP) receptor activation. EXPERIMENTAL APPROACH: Five-week-old ApoE KEY

resultsThe IP receptor agonist, iloprost, induced endothelium-, NO-synthase- and IP-dependent relaxations in aortae of young ApoE CONCLUSIONS AND IMPLICATIONS: Iloprost induced an endothelium-dependent relaxation in the aorta of young healthy mice which involved both the cGMP and cAMP pathways. This response was blunted by prolonged exposure to a high-fat diet. Apolipoprotein E deletion potentiated relaxations to IP receptor activation, independently of age and diet.
