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

Endothelial dysfunction and senescence are pivotal in pulmonary diseases, including chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Protein arginine methyltransferase 1 (PRMT1) is the major enzyme responsible for asymmetric arginine dimethylation and plays a role in diverse biological processes, including cardiovascular function. Yet, its role in endothelial cells (ECs) remains poorly understood. Here, the role of PRMT1 is investigated in ECs, particularly in the context of COPD pathogenesis. Endothelial-specific PRMT1 knockout mice exhibit pulmonary hemorrhage, inflammation, barrier disruption, and apoptosis, accompanied by hyperactivation of nuclear factor kappa B (NF-κB). Bulk RNA sequencing of whole lungs and single-cell RNA sequencing of pulmonary ECs reveal that endothelial PRMT1 ablation results in a major alteration in inflammation-related gene expression. In a COPD model, PRMT1 deficiency aggravates the COPD phenotypes, including enlarged alveolar spaces, increased cell death, and senescence. PRMT1 inhibition in ECs exacerbates tumor necrosis factor alpha-triggered EC senescence and dysfunction attributable to NF-κB hyperactivation. PRMT1 as a critical regulator of pulmonary EC function, preventing NF-κB-driven endothelial dysfunction and senescence is highlighted here.
