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

Amyloid beta (Aβ) peptide 40 enhances the activation of receptor for advanced glycation end products (RAGE) in immune-inflammatory diseases. RAGE exhibits several effects in the setting of numerous cardiovascular events. We hypothesized that the Aβ40/RAGE pathway is involved in the osteoblastic differentiation of the valvular interstitial cell (VIC) phenotype, and RAGE knockout intervention could reduce the calcification of aortic valve interstitial cells (AVICs) by inhibiting the extracellular-regulated kinase1/2 (ERK1/2)/nuclear factor kappa-B (NF-κB) signaling pathway. To test this hypothesis, the activation of Aβ40/RAGE pathway in human calcific AVs was evaluated with immunohistochemical staining. Cultured calcific VIC models were used in vitro. The VICs were stimulated using Aβ40, with or without RAGE small interfering ribonucleic acid (siRNA), and ERK1/2 and NF-κB inhibitors for analysis. Our data revealed that Aβ40 induced the ERK1/2/NF-κB signaling pathway and osteoblastic differentiation of AVICs via the RAGE pathway in vitro.
