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

objectivesThis study focused on investigating the expression and underlying molecular mechanism of early growth response 1 (Egr1) in diabetic retinopathy.

methodsA microarray assay was applied to examine differentially expressed genes in the retina tissues of normal rats, as well as in those of streptozotocin-induced diabetic rats. Human retinal vascular endothelial cells (HRVECs) transfected with sh-NC, sh-Egr1 or sh-Egr1+ pVax1-p53 were cultured under high-glucose conditions and then used to explore the role of Egr1 in vitro. The effect of Egr1 on retinal vascular dysfunction caused by diabetes was examined by sh-Egr1 administration in vivo

resultsEarly growth response 1 was found to be up-regulated in the retinas of diabetic rats compared to those of normal rats. Down-regulation of Egr1 in HRVECs under high-glucose conditions inhibited the apoptosis, migration and tube formation in vitro. Moreover, sh-Egr1 partially reduced the injurious effects of hyperglycaemia on retinal vascular function by decreasing apoptotic cells and microvascular formation in vivo. The reduction of Egr1 evidently down-regulated the p53 expression. Overexpression of p53 rescued the inhibition of sh-Egr1 in HRVECs under high-glucose concentration on apoptosis, migration and tube formation in vitro.

conclusionDown-regulation of Egr1 partially reduced the injurious effects of hyperglycaemia on retinal vascular function via inhibiting p53 expression.
