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

purposeTo investigate potential target genes associated with the diabetic condition in mouse cavernous endothelial cells (MCECs) for the treatment of diabetes-induced erectile dysfunction (ED). MATERIALS AND

methodsMouse cavernous tissue was embedded into Matrigel, and sprouted cells were subcultivated for other studies. To mimic diabetic conditions, MCECs were exposed to normal-glucose (NG, 5 mmoL) or high-glucose (HG, 30 mmoL) conditions for 72 hours. An RNA-sequencing assay was performed to evaluate gene expression profiling, and RT-PCR was used to validate the sequencing data.

resultsWe isolated MCECs exposed to the two glucose conditions. MCECs showed well-organized tubes and dynamic migration in the NG condition, whereas tube formation and migration were significantly decreased in the HG condition. RNA-sequencing analysis showed that MCECs had different gene profiles in the NG and HG conditions. Among the significantly changed genes, which we classified into 14 major gene categories, we identified that aging-related (9.22%) and angiogenesis-related (9.06%) genes were changed the most. Thirteen genes from the two gene categories showed consistent changes on the RNA-sequencing assay, and these findings were validated by RT-PCR.

conclusionsOur gene expression profiling studies showed that
