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

backgroundType 2 diabetes mellitus (DM) is a major cardiovascular risk factor that induces monocyte dysfunction and contributes to their accumulation in atherosclerotic lesions. Monocyte recruitment and accumulation in the tissues contribute to chronic inflammation and are essential to the pathobiology of diabetes-induced atherosclerosis. However, the mechanisms that drive the accumulation of monocytes in the diabetic environment are not clearly understood.

methodsPrimary monocytes from type 2 (T2) DM and non-T2DM individuals were isolated using magnet-assisted cell sorting. To examine the influence of a diabetic milieu on monocyte function, monocytes from T2DM patients, db/db mice, or human monocytes subjected to hyperglycaemia were analysed for their responses to pro-atherogenic cytokines using Boyden chamber assays. Furthermore, the interactions of non-diabetic and diabetic monocytes with TNFα-inflamed endothelium were studied using live-cell imaging under physiological flow conditions. RT-qPCR and FACS were used to study the expression of relevant molecules involved in monocyte-endothelium interaction.

resultsCD14

conclusionsOur results revealed for the first time that the enhanced T2DM monocyte accumulation in the ablumen is not secondary to the elevated transmigration through the endothelium. Instead, the accumulation of monocytes is due to the direct consequence of a dysfunctional rTEM, potentially due to enhanced JAM3-MAC1 engagement. Our results highlight the importance of restoring the rTEM capacity of monocytes to reduce monocyte accumulation-dependent inflammation induction and atherogenesis in the T2DM environment.
