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

aimAngiogenesis plays a vital role in airway remodeling in chronic asthma. ORMDL3 has been identified to be closely associated with the development of asthma remodeling. This study was to investigate the mechanism of ORMDL3 in angiogenesis of chronic asthma.

methodsBALB/c mice were divided into three groups, including an asthmatic group (group A), a budesonide-treated group (group B), and a normal control group (group C). Hematoxylin and eosin and Masson staining were used to evaluate the pathological changes. Angiogenesis in lung tissue was examined by CD31 staining. The changes of ORMDL3, ERK1/2, and angiogenesis-associated MMP-9 and Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) expression were examined. Furthermore, ORMDL3, MMP-9, and VEGF mRNA and protein levels were examined after transfection in BEAS-2B cells with the ORMDL3-overexpressed lentiviral vector.

resultsCompared with the control group, asthmatic mice indicated more severe airway angiogenesis with increased ORMDL3, ERK1/2, MMP-9, and VEGF expression. Budesonide alleviated airway angiogenesis, and CD31 expression was positive with the levels of ORMDL3, MMP-9, and VEGF (

conclusionIn conclusion, our study provides novel evidence that ORMDL3 promotes angiogenesis through upregulating VEGF and MMP-9 in chronic asthma.
