COL6A1 knockdown suppresses cell proliferation and migration in human aortic vascular smooth muscle cells.
Article in Experimental and therapeutic medicine, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 papers.
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.
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
Vascular smooth muscle cell (VSMC) migration is an important pathophysiological signature of neointimal hyperplasia. The aim of the present study was to investigate the effects of collagen type VI α1 chain (COL6A1) on VSMC migration. COL6A1 expression was silenced in platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF-BB)-stimulated VSMCs. Cell counting kit-8, wound healing and Transwell assays were used to measure cell viability, migration and invasion, respectively. Reverse transcription-quantitative PCR and western blot analysis were performed to analyze the expression of factors associated with metastasis. COL6A1 silencing attenuated PDGF-BB-induced increases in cell viability and invasive abilities of VSMCs, in addition to partially reversing the increased expression of fibronectin (FN), matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)-2 and MMP-9 induced by PDGF-BB stimulation. The silencing of COL6A also overturned PDGF-BB-induced reduction in tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase 2 expression in VSMCs. PDGF-BB activated the AKT/mTOR pathway, which was also inhibited by COL6A1 knockdown. Taken together, these findings suggest that COL6A1 silencing inhibited VSMC viability and migration by inhibiting AKT/mTOR activation.
