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

Objective: The instability of atherosclerotic (AS) plaque constitutes a critical trigger for acute intravascular thrombosis and cardiovascular disease. Prior studies have found that Methods: In vitro, RAW264.7 was used to investigate the effects of Gen on polarization phenotype, anti-inflammatory activity, and its correlation with PPARγ. In vivo, ApoE Results: In vitro, Gen upregulated the expressions of M2 macrophage markers (CD163, IL-10, Arg-1). Moreover, Gen increased the expressions of PPARγ target genes (CD36, ABCG1) and activated PPARγ activity, which could be inhibited by PPARγ antagonist GW9662. In vivo, the intervention of Gen on AS model of ApoE Conclusion: Gen regulates macrophage polarization to M2 phenotype and plays a role in inhibiting inflammation and stabilizing plaque by mediating PPARγ activation, which suggests that Gen may be a promising agent for AS.
