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

The regeneration of the blood vessel system post spinal cord injury (SCI) is essential for the repair of neurological function. As a significant means to regulate gene expression, epigenetic regulation of angiogenesis in SCI is still largely unknown. Here, we found that Ubiquitously Transcribed tetratricopeptide repeat on chromosome X (UTX), the histone H3K27 demethylase, increased significantly in endothelial cells post SCI. Knockdown of UTX can promote the migration and tube formation of endothelial cells. The specific knockout of UTX in endothelial cells enhanced angiogenesis post SCI accompanied with improved neurological function. In addition, we found regulation of UTX expression can change the level of microRNA 24 (miR-24) in vitro. The physical binding of UTX to the promotor of miR-24 was indicated by chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) assay. Meanwhile, methylation sequencing of endothelial cells demonstrated that UTX could significantly decrease the level of methylation in the miR-24 promotor. Furthermore, miR-24 significantly abolished the promoting effect of UTX deletion on angiogenesis in vitro and in vivo. Finally, we predicted the potential target mRNAs of miR-24 related to angiogenesis. We indicate that UTX deletion can epigenetically promote the vascular regeneration and functional recovery post SCI by forming a regulatory network with miR-24.
