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

Gicerin/CD146 is a cell adhesion molecule which belongs to the immunoglobulin (Ig) superfamily. We have reported the existence of gicerin/CD146 in the nervous system, heart, lung and smooth muscles of blood vessels. In this study, we make a cardiac hypertrophy model rat by constricting the rat aorta (AAC, ascending aortic constriction) and examined the effect on the expression of gicerin/CD146 in the heart. We found that the expression level of gicerin/CD146 was increased by the AAC treatment. Next, stretch stimulation was applied to myocardial cell line H9c2 cells to confirm that gicerin/CD146 may participate in the cellular hypertrophy model. We also treated the cells with inhibitors of MAP pathway enzymes. In cultured myocardial cells, the expression level of gicerin/CD146 was increased by the stretch stimulation and decreased by inhibiting the MAP pathway. Based on the above findings, it is suggested that the expression of gicerin/CD146 is involved in cardiac hypertrophy, and that the MAP pathway may be involved in the expression of gicerin/CD146 RNA in the cardiomyocyte. In addition, the expression level of gicerin/CD146 RNA in neonatal rats was upregulated after birth. Therefore, it is suggested that gicerin/CD146 might participate in the increase of myocardial cell volume both in the pathway of cardiac hypertrophy and in the developmental growth of heart.
