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

Abnormal accumulation of lipids and massive deposition of foam cells is a primary event in the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis. Recent studies have demonstrated that autophagy and lysosomal function of atherosclerotic macrophages are impaired, which exacerbates the accumulation of lipid in macrophages and formation of foam cells. Gastrodin, a major active component of Gastrodia elata Bl., has exerted a protective effect on nervous system, but the effect of gastrodin on atherosclerotic vascular disease remains unknown. We aimed to evaluate the effect of gastrodin on autophagy and lysosomal function of foam cells and explored the mechanism underlying gastrodin's effect on the formation of foam cells. In an in vitro foam cell model constructed by incubating macrophages with oxygenized low-density lipoproteins (ox-LDL), our results showed that lysosomal function and autophagy of foam cells were compromised. Gastrodin restored lysosomal function and autophagic activity via the induction of lysosomal biogenesis and autophagy. The restoration of lysosomal function and autophagic activity enhanced cholesterol efflux from macrophages, therefore, reducing lipid accumulation and preventing formation of foam cells. AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) was activated by gastrodin to promote phosphorylation and nuclear translocation of forkhead box O1 (FoxO1), subsequently resulting in increased transcription factor EB (TFEB) expression. TFEB was activated by gastrodin to promote lysosomal biogenesis and autophagy. Our study revealed that the effect of gastrodin on foam cell formation and that induction of lysosomal biogenesis and autophagy of foam cells through AMPK-FoxO1-TFEB signalling axis may be a novel therapeutic target of atherosclerosis.
