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

Currently, there is no large animal model of sustained limb ischemia suitable for testing novel angiogenic therapeutics for peripheral artery disease (PAD) such as drugs, genes, materials, or cells. We created a large animal model suitable for efficacy assessment of these therapies by testing 3 swine hind limb ischemia (HLI) variations and quantifying vascular perfusion, muscle histology, and limb function. Ligation of the ipsilateral external and bilateral internal iliac arteries produced sustained gait dysfunction compared to isolated external iliac or unilateral external and internal iliac artery ligations. Hyperemia-dependent muscle perfusion deficits, depressed limb blood pressure, arteriogenesis, muscle atrophy, and microscopic myopathy were quantifiable in ischemic limbs 6 weeks post-ligation. Porcine mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) engineered to express a reporter gene were visualized post-administration via positron emission tomography (PET) in vivo. These results establish a preclinical platform enabling better optimization of PAD therapies, including cellular therapeutics, increasing bench-to-bedside translational success. A preclinical platform for porcine studies of peripheral artery disease therapies including (1) a hind limb ischemia model and (2) non-invasive MSC viability and retention assessment via PET.
