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

Purpose: To elucidate the association between CD36 expression and senescence induced by oxidized low-density lipoprotein (ox-LDL) in patients with preeclampsia (PE). Patients and Methods: We conducted a gene set enrichment analysis on RNA-sequencing data of placentas, focusing on CD36, a key gene in lipid metabolism. CD36 and ox-LDL expression were measured via qRT-PCR, Western blotting, immunohistochemistry, and immunofluorescence. We used plasmid and siRNA transfection to modulate CD36 expression in human umbilical vein endothelial cells, exposing them to ox-LDL to assess cellular senescence, oxidative stress, and angiogenesis. A co-culture system was constructed to examine how endothelial cell senescence affects trophoblast migration and invasion. Results: In patients with PE, CD36 expression significantly increased in the vascular endothelial cells of the placenta. An association was observed between elevated CD36 and ox-LDL-induced cell senescence, accompanied by intracellular oxidative stress, endothelial cell angiogenesis disorders, and decreased trophoblast function in the placenta. Conclusion: Our study has initially identified significant alterations in CD36 expression in PE placentas, which may be one of the driving factors for the occurrence of senescence. Further research is warranted to explore the mechanism between CD36 and PE-related placental senescence, which may offer novel avenues for the diagnosis and treatment of PE.
