A Potential Target for Clinical Atherosclerosis: A Novel Insight Derived from TPM2.
Article in Aging and disease, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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.
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
Atherosclerosis (AS) is a potential inducer of numerous cardio-cerebrovascular diseases. However, little research has investigated the expression of TPM2 in human atherosclerosis samples. A total of 34 clinical samples were obtained, including 17 atherosclerosis and 17 normal artery samples, between January 2018 and April 2021. Bioinformatics analysis was applied to explore the potential role of TPM2 in atherosclerosis. Immunohistochemistry, immunofluorescence, and western blotting assays were used to detect the expression of TPM2 and α-SMA proteins. The mRNA expression levels of TPM2 and α-SMA were detected using RT-qPCR. A neural network and intima-media thickness model were constructed. A strong relationship existed between the intima-media thickness and relative protein expression of TPM2 (P<0.001, R=-0.579). The expression of TPM2 was lower in atherosclerosis than normal artery (P<0.05). Univariate logistic regression showed that TPM2 (OR=0.150, 95% CI: 0.026-0.868, P=0.034) had clear correlations with atherosclerosis. A neural network model was successfully constructed with a relativity of 0.94434. TPM2 might be an independent protective factor for arteries, and one novel biomarker of atherosclerosis.
