Thrombospondin-1 Serum Levels In Hypertensive Patients With Endothelial Dysfunction After One Year Of Treatment With Perindopril.
Article in Drug design, development and therapy, 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
backgroundThrombospondin-1 (TSP-1) is a matricellular functional protein of the extracellular matrix. As it is not constitutively present extracellularly, its secretion is enhanced in several situations, namely injury, chronic pathology, tissue remodeling, angiogenesis, and aging. Over the last decade, TSP-1 has been reported to be involved in complex and opposing biological effects on vasculature in the context of NO signaling. Several studies have reported high patient TSP-1 plasma levels, indicating that the protein can potentially serve as a prognostic marker for pulmonary arterial hypertension. MATERIALS AND
methodsHere, we aimed to quantify TSP-1 serum levels in hypertensive patients with endothelial dysfunction before and after one year of treatment with Perindopril (an antihypertensive drug with vasoprotective properties).
resultsAfter one year of treatment, TSP-1 levels increased in hypertensive patients compared to baseline (T0: 8061.9 ± 3684.80 vs T1: 15380±5887 ng/mL, p<0.001) and compared to non-hypertensive controls (9221.03 ± 6510.21 ng/mL). In contrast, pentraxin-3 plasma levels were decreased after one year of Perindopril treatment in both hypertensive (T0: 0.91 ± 0.51 vs T1: 0.50 ± 0.24 ng/mL, p<0.001) and control group (1.36 ±1.5 ng/mL) patients, although flow-mediated vasodilation and intima-media thickness assessment parameters were not significantly changed. Systolic and diastolic blood pressure values as well as levels of fibrinogen, high-sensitivity C-reactive protein, triglycerides, and alanine aminotransferase were found to be significantly lower after one year of treatment with Perindopril. High levels of TSP-1 strongly correlated with platelet count (positive), lymphocytes (positive), red cell distribution width-CV (positive), systolic blood pressure (negative), and mean corpuscular hemoglobin (negative) after one year of treatment. Blood urea nitrogen was found to be a protective factor for TSP-1, while glucose and heart rate were found to be risk factors prior to and after treatment.
