Ruscogenin Attenuates Lipopolysaccharide-Induced Septic Vascular Endothelial Dysfunction by Modulating the miR-146a-5p/NRP2/SSH1 Axis.

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
Introduction: Endothelial dysfunction (ED) is associated with the progression of sepsis. Ruscogenin (RUS) has shown considerable efficacy in treating ED and sepsis. In the current study, the effects of RUS on sepsis-induced ED were assessed, and the mechanism was explored by focusing on the interactions of RUS with miRs. Methods: Sepsis was induced in mice and in human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) using LPS method. Expression profile of miRs responding to sepsis was determined. Symptoms associated with sepsis and ED were examined after treatment with RUS. Changes in mouse survival, arterial structure, systemic inflammation, cell viability, apoptosis, and the miR-146a-5p/NRP2/SSH1 axis were analyzed. Results: Based on the microarray results, miR-146a-5p was selected as the therapeutic target. RUS improved survival rates and arterial structure, suppressed proinflammatory cytokines, down-regulated miR-146a-5p, and up-regulated NPR2 and SSH1 in septic mice. In HUVECs, RUS increased cell viability, suppressed apoptosis, inhibited inflammation, downregulated miR-146a-5p, and increased NRP2 and SSH1 levels. The re-induction of miR-146a-5p-5p impaired the protective effects of RUS on HUVECs. Discussion: Effects of RUS on sepsis-induced impairments in endothelium relied on the suppression of miR-146a-5p.
