Diabetes diminishes muscle precursor cell-mediated microvascular angiogenesis.

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 skeletal muscles of Type II diabetic (T2D) patients can be characterized by a reduced vessel density, corresponding to deficiencies in microvascular angiogenesis. Interestingly, T2D also inhibits the function of many myogenic cells resident within skeletal muscle, including satellite cells, which are well-known for the role they play in maintaining homeostasis. The current study was undertaken to gain a better understanding of the mechanisms whereby satellite cell progeny, muscle precursor cells (MPCs), influence microvascular angiogenesis. Network growth and the expression of genes associated with angiogenesis were reduced when microvessels were treated with conditioned media generated by proliferating MPCs isolated from diabetic, as compared to control rat skeletal muscle, a phenomenon that was also observed when myoblasts from control or diabetic human skeletal muscle were used. When only exosomes derived from diabetic or control MPCs were used to treat microvessels, no differences in microvascular growth were observed. An evaluation of the angiogenesis factors in control and diabetic MPCs revealed differences in Leptin, vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), IL1-β, interleukin 10, and IP-10, and an evaluation of the MPC secretome revealed differences in interleukin 6, MCP-1, VEGF, and interleukin 4 exist. Angiogenesis was also reduced in tissue-engineered skeletal muscles (TE-SkM) containing microvessels when they were generated from MPCs isolated from diabetic as compared to control skeletal muscle. Lastly, the secretome of injured control, but not diabetic, TE-SkM was able to increase VEGF and increase microvascular angiogenesis. This comprehensive analysis of the interaction between MPCs and microvessels in the context of diabetes points to an area for alleviating the deleterious effects of diabetes on skeletal muscle.
