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

Introduction: Vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) are highly involved in airway vascular remodeling in asthma. Objectives: This study aimed to investigate the mechanisms underlying the effects of a disintegrin and metalloproteinase-33 (ADAM33) gene on the migration capacity and inflammatory cytokine secretion of VSMCs. Methods: Human aortic smooth muscle cells (HASMCs) were transfected with lentiviral vectors carrying short hairpin RNA (shRNA) targeting ADAM33 or negative control vectors. The migration capacity of HASMCs was evaluated by a transwell assay. The levels of secreted inflammatory cytokines were measured using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) kits. Reverse transcription-quantitative polymerase chain reaction and Western blot assays were performed to detect mRNA and protein expression levels. Results: Silencing of ADAM33 significantly inhibited the migration of HASMCs. The expression of tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF- Conclusion: Silencing of the ADAM33 gene inhibited HASMC migration and regulated inflammatory cytokine secretion via targeting the PI3K/AKT/mTOR pathway and its downstream signaling. These data contribute to a better understanding of the regulatory mechanisms of airway vascular remodeling in asthma.
