Effect of Peptidylarginine Deiminase 4 on Endothelial Progenitor Cell Function in Peripheral Arterial Disease.
Article in Evidence-based complementary and alternative medicine : eCAM, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It has been retracted, and should not be counted. Cited by 1 paper.
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.
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
At present, the global prevalence of peripheral arterial disease is increasing year by year, and it has become a worldwide disease. Studies have shown that transplanting endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs) into ischemic tissues can improve the tissue ischemia, thereby having a therapeutic effect on peripheral arterial diseases. This indicates that EPCs play a therapeutic effect in peripheral arterial disease. Recent studies have shown that peptidylarginine deiminase (PAD) is involved in the regulation of epigenetics and its inhibitor Cl-amidine can improve endothelium-dependent vasodilation and significantly reduce the formation of arterial thrombosis. It can also play a role in hematopoietic stem cells that share the same origin with EPCs. Therefore, we speculate that PAD4 may also have an effect on EPCs through a similar mechanism, thereby participating in the damage and repair of peripheral arterial disease. Therefore, we first detected the expression of PAD4 in EPCs of peripheral arterial disease and detected changes in the number and function of endothelial progenitor cells in peripheral blood after injecting the PAD4 inhibitor Cl-amidine into mice. A mouse model of lower limb ischemia was established to explore the effect of PAD4 on the function of EPCs in peripheral arterial disease. The results show that PAD4 is highly expressed in peripheral arterial diseases and the PAD4 inhibitor Cl-amidine can increase the number of EPCs and can treat peripheral arterial diseases by improving the proliferation, migration, and vascularization of EPCs.
