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

Aging is associated with impaired neovascularization in response to ischemia. MicroRNAs are small noncoding RNAs emerging as key regulators of physiological and pathological processes. Here we investigated the potential role of microRNAs in endothelial cell senescence and age-dependent impairment of neovascularization. Next generation sequencing and qRT-PCR analyses identified miR-130a as a pro-angiogenic microRNA which expression is significantly reduced in old mouse aortic endothelial cells (ECs). Transfection of young ECs with a miR-130a inhibitor leads to accelerated senescence and reduced angiogenic functions. Conversely, forced expression of miR-130a in old ECs reduces senescence and improves angiogenesis. In a mouse model of hindlimb ischemia, intramuscular injection of miR-130a mimic in older mice restores blood flow recovery and vascular densities in ischemic muscles, improves mobility and reduces tissue damage. miR-130a directly targets antiangiogenic homeobox genes MEOX2 and HOXA5. MEOX2 and HOXA5 are significantly increased in the ischemic muscles of aging mice, but forced expression of miR-130a reduces the expression of these factors. miR-130a treatment after ischemia is also associated with increased number and improved functional activities of pro-angiogenic cells (PACs). Forced expression of miR-130a could constitute a novel strategy to improve blood flow recovery and reduce ischemia in older patients with ischemic vascular diseases.
