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

The accumulation of lactate in tissue microenvironments is associated with atherosclerosis, but its precise role in atherogenesis remains largely unknown. This study demonstrated that lactate accumulation in aortic tissues and blood is correlated with increased monocarboxylate transporter 1 (Mct1) expression in endothelial cells (ECs) within atherosclerotic plaques. Lactate uptake via Mct1 triggers an inflammatory response in ECs. The administration of endothelial-targeting nanoparticles containing siRNA against
