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 identify the genes associated with venous graft restenosis in rabbits using transcriptome sequencing.

methodsForty New Zealand rabbits were randomly divided into experimental group and control group, and in the experimental group, the left external jugular veins of the rabbits were engrafted to the left common carotid artery with continuous running suture; the rabbits in the control group received no operation. At 2 and 4 weeks after the operation, 10 rabbits from each group were euthanized and the venous grafts (in experimental group) or left external jugular vein (in control group) were harvested for measurement of the intima-media thickness using HE staining. RNA high-throughput sequencing (RNA-seq) was performed to identify the differentially expressed genes (DEGs) between the venous grafts and the control veins, and the biological functions of the DEGs were analyzed using GO and KEEG databases.

resultsIn the experimental group, intima-media thickening with increased extracellular matrix and vascular smooth muscle cell proliferation occurred in the venous grafts at 2 weeks and aggravated at 4 weeks after the operation. RNA high-throughput sequencing identified 1583 up-regulated genes and 608 down-regulated genes in the venous grafts in the experimental group, and GO and KEGG analysis of the DEGs pinpointed 10 hub genes, namely CD4, ZAP70, SYK, CD28, PIK3CD, CXCR4, CCR5, ITK, CCL5 and BTK.

conclusionCD4, ZAP70, SYK, CD28, PIK3CD, CXCR4, CCR5, ITK, CCL5 and BTK are probably the key genes associated with vein graft restenosis in rabbits.
