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

Atherosclerosis is a non-resolving inflammatory disease, and mechanisms to promote inflammation resolution, reduce vascular injury and promote repair in atherosclerosis are unmet needs. Specialized pro-resolving mediators (SPMs) like Resolvins, in part, mediate inflammation resolution and limit atherosclerosis progression. Uncovering processes associated with their protective actions are of interest. Senescent cells are maladaptive in atherosclerosis, and their accumulation promotes necrotic core formation in plaques. The SPM Resolvin D2 (RvD2) reduces plaque necrosis in part through its G-protein coupled receptor (GPCR), called GPR18. Here, we show how RvD2 can limit senescent cell accumulation in vivo and in vitro. Loss of myeloid GPR18 in Ldlr
