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

Vascular basement membranes (BMs), composed of laminins, collagen IV, fibronectin, and perlecan, are secreted by endothelial cells, pericytes, smooth muscle cells (SMCs), and astrocytes. In the brain, amyloid beta (Aβ) is eliminated along cerebrovascular BMs of capillaries and arteries as intramural periarterial drainage (IPAD). Ageing modifies vascular BMs, impairing IPAD and leading to Aβ deposition as cerebral amyloid angiopathy. To better understand the molecular determinants of IPAD in ageing, we quantified the relative abundance of BMs secreted by human-derived cerebral endothelial cells, pericytes, brain vascular SMCs, and astrocytes in vitro. We then assessed BM protein levels in SMCs under hypercapnia (8% CO
