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

Angiogenesis is a critical process in the formation of new capillaries and a key participant in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) pathogenesis. Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) stimulation of endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs) facilitates angiogenesis and the progression of RA. Phosphorylation of sphingosine kinase 1 (SphK1) produces sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P), which increases inflammatory cytokine production, although the role of S1P in RA angiogenesis is unclear. In this study, we evaluated the impact of S1P treatment on VEGF-dependent angiogenesis in osteoblast-like cells (MG-63 cells) and the significance of SphK1 short hairpin RNA (shRNA) on S1P production in an in vivo model. We found significantly higher levels of S1P and VEGF expression in synovial fluid from RA patients compared with those with osteoarthritis by ELISA analysis. Treating MG-63 cells with S1P increased VEGF production, while focal adhesion kinase (FAK) and Src siRNAs and inhibitors decreased VEGF production in S1P-treated MG-63 cells. Conditioned medium from S1P-treated osteoblasts significantly increased EPC tube formation and migration by inhibiting miR-16-5p synthesis via proto-oncogene tyrosine-protein kinase src (c-Src) and FAK signaling in chick chorioallantoic membrane (CAM) and Matrigel plug assays. Infection with SphK1 shRNA reduced angiogenesis, articular swelling and cartilage erosion in the ankle joints of mice with collagen-induced arthritis (CIA). S1P appears to have therapeutic potential in RA treatment.
