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

introductionPrevious studies have shown that endothelial cell senescence is involved in cardiovascular diseases such as cardiac fibrosis, atherosclerosis and heart failure. Accumulating evidence indicates that apelin exerts protective effects on ageing-related endothelial dysfunction. In this study, we aim to investigate the role of the apelin/APJ axis in angiotensin II (AngII)-induced endothelium senescence and its associated mechanisms. MATERIAL AND

methodsSenescence-related β-gal activity assay and western blot were used to evaluate human umbilical vein endothelial cell (HUVEC) senescence. In addition, DCFH-DA staining was carried out to detect the generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS). A validated, high-sensitivity real-time quantitative telomeric repeat amplification protocol (RQ-TRAP) was applied to determine telomerase activity in HUVECs, and a CCK-8 assay was employed to measure cellular viability.

resultsAngII induced an increase in SA-β-Gal-positive cells and upregulation on expression of P21 and PAI-1 compared to the control group (

conclusionsThe apelin/APJ axis improved AngII-induced HUVEC senescence via the AMPK/SIRT1 signaling pathway, and the underlying mechanisms might be associated with reduced ROS production and enhanced telomerase activity.
