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

objectivesRegulated in development and DNA damage responses 1 (REDD1) is an important transcription factor regulating mitochondria homeostasis, which is the important pathological alteration of pulmonary hypertension (PH). However, it is unclear whether REDD1 regulates the PASMCs mitochondria homeostasis by the similar mechanism in pulmonary arterial remodeling induced by hypoxia.

methodsThe global REDD1-knockout rats (REDD1-KO) on Sprague-Dawley background were used to generate a chronic hypoxia model of PH. Right ventricular hypertrophy and vascular remodeling were detected after exposure to hypoxia. Additionally, proliferation, apoptosis, migration, mitochondria homeostasis, and autophagy were performed

resultsThe current research found that in human and experimental rats of PH, REDD1 expression is upregulated in the PASMCs. REDD1 gene knockout alleviated hypoxia PH and hemodynamic changes effectively and reversed hypoxic pulmonary vascular remodeling. In addition, REDD1 knockdown reduces the impairment of mitochondrial function caused by hypoxia in HPASMCs via autophagy inhibition, and this process may be regulated through the Parkin gene. Moreover, REDD1 knockdown can effectively inhibit the proliferation and migration of hypoxic PASMCs, and induce their apoptosis

conclusionsOur results suggested that REDD1 might be a potential target for improved pulmonary vascular remodeling in PH.
