Monitoring VEGF-Stimulated Calcium Ion Flux in Endothelial Cells.
Article in Methods in molecular biology (Clifton, N.J.), 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
The endothelial response to vascular endothelial growth factor A (VEGF-A) regulates many aspects of animal physiology in health and disease. Such VEGF-A-regulated phenomena include vasculogenesis, angiogenesis, tumor growth and progression. VEGF-A binding to receptor tyrosine kinases such as vascular endothelial growth factor receptor 2 (VEGFR2 ) activates multiple signal transduction pathways and changes in homeostasis, metabolism, gene expression, cell proliferation, migration, and survival. One such VEGF-A-regulated response is a rapid rise in cytosolic calcium ion levels which modulates different biochemical events and impacts on endothelial-specific responses. Here, we present a series of detailed and robust protocols for evaluating ligand-stimulated cytosolic calcium ion flux in endothelial cells. By monitoring an endogenous endothelial transcription factor (NFATc2 ) which displays calcium-sensitive redistribution, we can assess the relevance of cytosolic calcium to protein function. This protocol can be easily applied to both adherent and non-adherent cultured cells to evaluate calcium ion flux in response to exogenous stimuli such as VEGF-A.
