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 transcription factor Bach1 impairs angiogenesis after ischemic injury by suppressing Wnt/β-catenin signaling; however, the specific domains responsible for the anti-angiogenic effects of Bach1 remain unclear. This study determined the role of the BTB domain of Bach1 in ischemic angiogenesis. Bach1 is highly expressed in circulating endothelial cells from acute myocardial infarction patients and is the early induction gene after ischemia. Mice were treated with adenoviruses coding for GFP (AdGFP), Bach1 (AdBach1), or a Bach1 mutant lacking the BTB domain (AdBach1-ΔBTB) after surgically induced hind-limb ischemia. Measures of blood-flow recovery, capillary density, and the expression of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) were significantly lower and ROS levels were higher in the AdBach1 group, but not in AdBach1-ΔBTB animals. Furthermore, transfection with AdBach1, but not AdBach1-ΔBTB, in human endothelial cells was associated with significant declines in 1) capillary density and hemoglobin content in the Matrigel-plug assay, 2) proliferation, migration, tube formation, and VEGF and HO-1 expression in endothelial cells. Bach1 binds directly with TCF4, and this interaction is mediated by residues 81-89 of the Bach1 BTB domain and the N-terminal domain of TCF4. Bach1, but not Bach1-ΔBTB, also co-precipitated with histone deacetylase 1 (HDAC1), while the full-length HDAC1 proteins, but not HDAC1 mutants lacking the protein-interaction domain, co-precipitated with Bach1. Collectively, these results demonstrate that the anti-angiogenic activity of Bach1 is crucially dependent on molecular interactions that are mediated by the protein's BTB domain, and this domain could be a drug target for angiogenic therapy.
