THBS1 mediates hypoxia driven EndMT in pulmonary hypertension.
Article in Pulmonary circulation, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
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
Long-term hypoxia is one of the main causes of pulmonary vascular remodeling in pulmonary hypertension (PH) associated with congenital heart disease (CHD) children. Endothelial to mesenchymal transition (EndMT) is an important pathological basis of pulmonary vascular remodeling in PH. We observed that Fibronectin 1 (FN1) had strong protein-protein interactions with both Thrombospondin 1 (THBS1) and Transglutaminase 2 (TGM2) in PH with venous peripheral bloods samples from pediatric patients and healthy children. LungMAP CellCards and heatmaps of human PAEC in PH patients and lung tissues in hypoxia induced PH mice model were used to show that THBS1 and FN1 were significantly elevated. We studied the relationship between THBS1 and FN1 in vivo, by using SUHX-induced PH mice model, and in vitro, by using hypoxia-induced human PAEC. The results showed that hypoxia could result in EndMT and inhibiting THBS1 could reverse EndMT in vivo and in vitro, verifying our transcriptome results. Taken together, our research demonstrated that THBS1 could mediate hypoxia driven EndMT of PH, providing a new insight of research in the pathophysiology of PH.
