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

Endothelial cells are important components of peripheral nerve stumps that contribute to Schwann cell migration and peripheral nerve regeneration. Let-7d modulates the phenotype of Schwann cells and affected peripheral nerve regeneration. However, the regulatory roles of let-7d on endothelial cells remain undetermined. In this study, by transfecting cultured human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) with let-7d mimic or let-7d inhibitor, we investigated the biological effects of let-7d on endothelial cells. EdU proliferation assay showed that upregulated let-7d decreased the proliferation rates of HUVECs while downregulated let-7d increased the proliferation rates of HUVECs. Transwell-based migration assay and wound-healing assay demonstrated that let-7d inhibited the migration ability of HUVECs. Matrigel assay suggested that let-7d decreased the numbers of formed meshes and suppressed the tubulogenesis of HUVECs. RNA sequencing, bioinformatic analysis, gene expression validation, and luciferase assay suggested that let-7d directly targeted interferon-induced protein 44 like (IFI44L) gene and negatively regulated the expression of IFI44L. Taken together, our study illuminated the inhibitory roles of let-7d on the proliferation, migration, and tubulogenesis of endothelial cells, identified the target gene of let-7d, and deepened the understanding of the biological effects of let-7d on key elements of peripheral nerve regeneration.
