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

This study was aimed to explore the effect and mechanisms of action of perfluorocarbon on LPS-induced apoptosis of pulmonary microvascular endothelial cells (PMVEC) isolated from Sprague-Dawley rats. Apoptosis rates were assessed by flow cytometry. Ultrastructural characteristics of PMVEC were evaluated by transmission electron microscopy. The protein expression of cleaved caspase-3 was measured using Western blotting. LPS significantly increased the level of apoptosis, induced the appearance of ultrastructural changes typical of apoptosis, up-regulated the expression of active caspase-3 protein. These effects of LPS were attenuated by co-administration of perfluorocarbon. These results suggest that perfluorocarbon can attenuate LPS-induced apoptosis of PMVEC by inhibiting TLR-4 signaling and caspase-3 activation.
