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

Cerebral amyloid angiopathy (CAA) is a disease in which amyloid β (Aβ) is deposited on the walls of blood vessels in the brain, making those walls brittle and causing cerebral hemorrhage. However, the mechanism underlying its onset is not well understood. The aggregation and accumulation of Aβ cause the occlusion and fragility of blood vessels due to endothelial cell damage, breakdown of the blood-brain barrier, and replacement with elements constituting the blood vessel wall. In this study, we observed the effect of Aβ on human primary brain microvascular endothelial cells (hBMECs) in real-time using quantum dot nanoprobes to elucidate the mechanism of vascular weakening by Aβ. It was observed that Aβ began to aggregate around hBMECs after the start of incubation and that the cells were covered with aggregates. Aβ aggregates firmly anchored the cells on the plate surface, and eventually suppressed cell motility and caused cell death. Furthermore, Aβ aggregation induced the organization of abnormal actin, resulting in a significant increase in intracellular actin dots over 10 μm
