Relationship between PMN-endothelium interactions, ROS production and Beclin-1 in type 2 diabetes.
Article in Redox biology, 2020. 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
Type 2 diabetes is closely related to oxidative stress and cardiovascular diseases. In this study, we hypothesized that polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMN)-endothelium interactions and autophagy are associated. We evaluated PMN-endothelial interactions, ROS production and autophagy parameters in 47 type 2 diabetic patients and 57 control subjects. PMNs from type 2 diabetic patients exhibited slower rolling velocity (p < 0.001), higher rolling flux (p < 0.001) and adhesion (p < 0.001) in parallel to higher levels of total (p < 0.05) and mitochondrial ROS (p < 0.05). When the protein expression of autophagy markers was analysed, an increase of Beclin-1 (p < 0.05), LC3I (p < 0.05), LC3II (p < 0.01) and LC3II/LC3I ratio (p < 0.05) was observed. Several correlations between ROS and leukocyte-endothelium parameters were found. Interestingly, in control subjects, an increase of Beclin-1 levels was accompanied by a decrease in the number of rolling (r = 0.561) and adhering PMNs (r = 0.560) and a rise in the velocity of the rolling PMNs (r = 0.593). In contrast, in the type 2 diabetic population, a rise in Beclin-1 levels was related to an increase in the number of rolling (r = 0.437), and adhering PMNs (r = 0.467). These results support the hypothesis that PMN-endothelium interactions, ROS levels and formation of autophagosomes, especially Beclin-1 levels, are enhanced in type 2 diabetes.
