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

Proper arteriovenous morphogenesis is crucial for maintaining normal tissue perfusion. However, our understanding of how arterial morphogenesis is regulated in the CNS is incomplete. In this study, we asked whether vascular basement membrane (BM) laminins, specifically the γ3-containing isoforms, regulate retinal arterial morphogenesis. We provide evidence that Laminin-γ3 is deposited at both arterial and venous BMs during arteriogenesis. Vascular BM Laminin-γ3 bound dystroglycan (DG), a laminin receptor preferentially expressed by arterial endothelial cells (ECs) during arteriogenesis. Blockade of laminin-DG binding in vitro led to decreased Delta-like ligand (DLL)-4 expression in ECs. Moreover, genetic deletion of the Laminin-γ3- and EC-specific deletion of DG led to similar defects in retinal arteriogenesis, including reduced Dll4 expression, hyperbranching and reduced smooth muscle coverage. These results implicate a newly identified Laminin-γ3-DG signaling cascade that regulates arterial Dll4/Notch signaling to specify and stabilize retinal arteries.-Biswas, S., Watters, J., Bachay, G., Varshney, S., Hunter, D.
