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

Cellular senescence is a hallmark of advanced age and a major instigator of numerous inflammatory pathologies. While endothelial cell (EC) senescence is aligned with defective vascular functionality, its impact on fundamental inflammatory responses in vivo at single-cell level remain unclear. To directly investigate the role of EC senescence on dynamics of neutrophil-venular wall interactions, we applied high resolution confocal intravital microscopy to inflamed tissues of an EC-specific progeroid mouse model, characterized by profound indicators of EC senescence. Progerin-expressing ECs supported prolonged neutrophil adhesion and crawling in a cell autonomous manner that additionally mediated neutrophil-dependent microvascular leakage. Transcriptomic and immunofluorescence analysis of inflamed tissues identified elevated levels of EC CXCL1 on progerin-expressing ECs and functional blockade of CXCL1 suppressed the dysregulated neutrophil responses elicited by senescent ECs. Similarly, cultured progerin-expressing human ECs exhibited a senescent phenotype, were pro-inflammatory and prompted increased neutrophil attachment and activation. Collectively, our findings support the concept that senescent ECs drive excessive inflammation and provide new insights into the mode, dynamics, and mechanisms of this response at single-cell level.
