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

BACKGROUND AND

aimsIsolation of cellular constituents from the mouse aorta is commonly used for expression or functional analyses in atherosclerosis research. However, current procedures to isolate primary cells are difficult, inefficient, and require separate mice. RNA extraction from aortic intima and media for transcriptomic analysis is also considered difficult with mixed RNA yields. To address these gaps, we provide: 1) a rapid, efficient protocol to isolate and culture diverse cell types concomitantly from the mouse aorta using immunomagnetic cell isolation; and 2) an optimized aortic intimal peeling technique for efficient RNA isolation from the intima and media. METHODS AND

resultsAortic cells were obtained using an enzymatic solution and different cell types were isolated by magnetic beads conjugated to antibodies targeting endothelial cells (CD31

conclusionsThis protocol provides an effective means for magnetic bead-based isolation of different cell types from the mouse aortic wall, and the isolated cells can be utilized for functional and mechanistic studies for a range of vascular diseases including atherosclerosis.
