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

Vascular leakage associated with vascular endothelial cell (vEC) dysfunction is a hallmark of sepsis. Causative for the decreased integrity of the vascular endothelium (vE) is a complex concurrence of pathogen components, inflammation-associated host factors, and the interaction of vECs and activated circulating immune cells. One signaling pathway that regulates the integrity of the vE is the Notch cascade, which is activated through the binding of a Notch ligand to its respective Notch receptor. Recently, we showed that the soluble form of the Notch ligand Delta-like1 (sDLL1) is highly abundant in the blood of patients with sepsis. However, a direct connection between DLL1-activated Notch signaling and loss of vEC barrier function has not been addressed so far. To study the impact of infection-associated sDLL1, we used human umbilical vein cells (HUVEC) grown in a transwell system and cocultured with blood. Stimulation with sDLL1 induced activation as well as loss of endothelial tight structure and barrier function. Moreover, LPS-stimulated HUVEC activation and increase in endothelial cell permeability could be significantly decreased by blocking DLL1-receptor binding and Notch signaling, confirming the involvement of the cascade in LPS-mediated endothelial dysfunction. In conclusion, our results suggest that during bacterial infection and LPS recognition, DLL1-activated Notch signaling is associated with vascular permeability. This finding might be of clinical relevance in terms of preventing vascular leakage and the severity of sepsis.
