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

Previous study has shown that thiazolidinediones (TZDs) improved endothelium insulin resistance (IR) induced by high glucose concentration (HG)/hyperglycaemia through a PPARγ-dependent-NFκB trans-repression mechanism. However, it is unclear, whether changes in PPARγ expression affect the endothelium IR and what the underlying mechanism is. In the present study, we aimed to address this issue. HG-treated human umbilical vascular endothelial cells (HUVEC) were transfected by either PPARγ-overexpressing (Ad-PPARγ) or PPARγ-shRNA-containing (Ad-PPARγ-shRNA) adenoviral vectors. Likewise, the rats fed by high-fat diet (HFD) were infected by intravenous administration of Ad-PPARγ or Ad-PPARγ-shRNA. The levels of nitric oxide (NO), endothelin-1 (ET-1) and cytokines (TNFα, IL-6, sICAM-1 and sVCAM-1) and the expression levels of PPARγ, eNOS, AKT, p-AKT, IKKα/β and p-IKKα/β and IκBα were examined; and the interaction between PPARγ and NFκB-P65 as well as vascular function were evaluated. Our present results showed that overexpression of PPARγ notably increased the levels of NO, eNOS, p-AKT and IκBα as well as the interaction of PPARγ and NFκB-P65, and decreased the levels of ET-1, p-IKKα/β, TNFα, IL-6, sICAM-1 and sVCAM-1. In contrast, down-expression of PPARγ displayed the opposite effects. The results demonstrate that the overexpression of PPARγ improves while the down-expression worsens the endothelium IR via a PPARγ-mediated NFκB trans-repression dependent manner. The findings suggest PPARγ is a potential therapeutic target for diabetic vascular complications.
