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

backgroundRenal transplantation is increasingly associated with the presence of comorbidity factors such as dyslipidemia which could influence the graft outcome. We hypothesized that hypercholesterolemia could affect vascular repair processes and promote post-transplant renal vascular remodeling through the over-expression of the anti-angiogenic thrombospondin-1 interacting with vascular endothelial growth factor-A levels.

methodsWe tested this hypothesis in vitro, in vivo and in a human cohort using (1) endothelial cells; (2) kidney auto-transplanted pig subjected (n = 5) or not (n = 6) to a diet enriched in cholesterol and (3) a renal transplanted patient cohort (16 patients).

resultsCells exposed to oxidized LDL showed reduced proliferation and an increased expression of thrombospondin-1. In pigs, 3 months after transplantation of kidney grafts, we observed a deregulation of the hypoxia inducible factor 1a-vascular endothelial growth factor-A axis induced in cholesterol-enriched diet animals concomitant with an overexpression of thrombospondin-1 and a decrease in cortical microvessel density promoting vascular remodeling. In patients, hypercholesterolemia was associated with decreased vascular endothelial growth factor-A plasma levels during early follow up after renal transplantation and increased chronic graft dysfunction.

conclusionsThese results support a potential mechanism through which a high fat-diet impedes vascular repair in kidney graft and suggest the value of controlling cholesterolemia in recipient even at the early stage of renal transplantation.
