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 Carotid plaques with expansive arterial remodeling are closely related to cerebral ischemic events. Although S100A4 (S100 calcium-binding protein A4) is expressed in atherosclerotic lesions, its role in atherosclerotic plaque progression remains unknown. In this study, we examined the association between carotid arterial expansive remodeling and S100A4 expression. Methods and Results Preoperative high-resolution magnetic resonance imaging was used to assess luminal stenosis and vascular remodeling in patients undergoing carotid endarterectomy. To examine murine carotid atherosclerosis, we induced experimental lesions by flow cessation in apolipoprotein E-deficient mice fed a high-fat diet. The role of S100A4 in plaque formation and smooth muscle cell proliferation was investigated in vivo and in vitro, respectively. Human carotid arterial expansive remodeling showed positive correlations with the expression of
