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

objectiveTo investigate the effect of aldehyde dehydrogenase 2 (ALDH2) on lipopolysaccharide (LPS)- induced damage of mouse brain microvascular endothelial barrier and explore the role of mitochondrial fusion and fission in maintaining the integrity of endothelial barrier.

methodsMouse brain microvascular endothelial cells were treated with 1 μg/ mL LPS for 24 h with or without pretreatment with 20 μmol/mL Alda-1 (a ALDH2 agonist) for 1 h. The changes in cell viability were assessed using cell counting Kit-8 (CCK8) assay, and the cell permeability was evaluated using transendothelial cell resistance (TEER) and FITC-Dextran assay. The level of oxidative stress in the cells was assessed by detecting the levels of malondialdehyde (MDA) and superoxide dismutase (SOD), and the content of reactive oxygen species (ROS) was detected using a superoxide anion fluorescent probe (DHE). Western blotting was performed to detect the expressions of ALDH2, tight junction proteins ZO-1 and occludin, and mitochondrial fusion- and division-related proteins Mfn2, OPA1, Drp1 and Fis1.

resultsCompared with the untreated cells, the cells treated with LPS showed significantly decreased TEER, increased FITC-dextran leakage, MDA content and ROS production, decreased SOD activity expressions of ALDH2, ZO-1, occludin, Mfn2 and OPA1, and increased expressions of Drp1 and Fis1 (

conclusionALDH2 can alleviate LPS-induced damage of brain microvascular endothelial cell barrier by inhibiting the mitochondrial ROS production and promoting mitochondrial fusion and inhibiting mitochondrial fission.
