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

background and purposeTo test the hypothesis that angiotensin-(1-7) [Ang-(1-7)] may attenuate abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) via inhibiting vascular inflammation, extracellular matrix degradation, and smooth muscle cell (SMC) apoptosis, an animal model of AAA was established by angiotensin II (Ang II) infusion to apolipoprotein E-knockout (ApoE EXPERIMENTAL APPROACH: All mice and cultured SMCs or macrophages were divided into control, Ang II-treated, Ang II + Ang-(1-7)-treated, Ang II + Ang-(1-7) + A779-treated and Ang II + Ang-(1-7) + PD123319-treated groups respectively. In vivo, aortic mechanics and serum lipids were assessed. Ex vivo, AAA were examined by histology, immunohistochemistry and zymography. Cultured cells were analysed by RT-PCR, western blots and TUNEL assays. KEY

resultsIn vivo, Ang-(1-7) reduced the incidence and severity of AAA induced by Ang II infusion, by inhibiting macrophage infiltration, attenuating expression of IL-6, TNF-α, CCL2 and MMP2, and decreasing SMC apoptosis in abdominal aortic tissues. Addition of A779 or PD123319 reversed Ang-(1-7)-mediated beneficial effects on AAA. In vitro, Ang-(1-7) decreased expression of mRNA for IL-6, TNF-α, and CCL2 induced by Ang II in macrophages. In addition, Ang-(1-7) suppressed apoptosis and MMP2 expression and activity in Ang II-treated SMCs. These effects were accompanied by inhibition of the ERK1/2 signalling pathways via Ang-(1-7) stimulation of Mas and AT CONCLUSION AND IMPLICATIONS: Ang-(1-7) treatment attenuated Ang II-induced AAA via inhibiting vascular inflammation, extracellular matrix degradation, and SMC apoptosis. Ang-(1-7) may provide a novel and promising approach to the prevention and treatment of AAA.
