Assessment of Ketamine's Influence on In Vitro Angiogenesis.
Article in Anesthesia progress, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Objective: Angiogenesis is associated with angiogenic therapy and wound healing processes. It is important for anesthesiologists to understand the effects of perioperative and long-term use of anesthetics on angiogenesis. This study aimed to determine the effects of ketamine on in vitro angiogenesis: the proliferation of human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVEC) and normal human diploid fibroblasts (NHDF), HUVEC migration, and in vitro capillary tube formation in cocultured HUVEC and NHDF. Methods: The effects of ketamine at concentrations of 1, 10, and 50 µM on the proliferation of HUVEC and NHDF for 48 hours were determined by using a water-soluble tetrazolium salt reagent. Quantitation of migration for 22 hours was achieved by measuring the fluorescence of migrating HUVEC exposed to ketamine using an angiogenesis system. The effects of ketamine on capillary tube formation with or without vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) were investigated in cocultured HUVEC and NHDF incubated for 3 and 10 days. Results: Ketamine did not show any enhancing or suppressive effects on the in vitro proliferation of HUVEC and NHDF, HUVEC migration, or capillary tube formation in cocultured HUVEC and NHDF for either 3 or 10 days in the presence or absence of VEGF. Conclusion: Ketamine had no effects on in vitro angiogenesis using cultured HUVEC and NHDF. Ketamine can potentially be used as an anesthetic agent with no influence on angiogenesis.
