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

Background: Angiogenesis and coronary collateral circulation (CCC) formation promote cardiac repair following severe coronary stenosis (SCS) or myocardial infarction (MI). Angiopoietin-like protein 7 (ANGPTL7) is a secreted protein associated with angiogenesis, but its role in CCC formation remains unclear. Objective: The aim of this study was to investigate the role of ANGPTL7 in angiogenesis and evaluate the predictive value of serum ANGPTL7 in CCC formation and the prognosis of patients with SCS. Materials and methods: The RNA sequencing was performed on myocardial tissues of mice to analyze the alterations of angiogenesis-related genes after MI. 100 patients with angiographically proven SCS and 36 controls were enrolled and retrospectively followed up. Serum ANGPTL7 was measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (ELISA). Human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) and exogenous human recombinant ANGPTL7 protein were applied in assays including CCK-8, scratch, tube formation, cell immunofluorescence and western blot to demonstrate the proangiogenic effect of ANGPTL7. Gene Set Enrichment Analysis (GSEA) was used to perform KEGG pathway enrichment analysis on downstream mechanisms by which ANGPTL7 promoted angiogenesis. Results: The transcriptional level of Conclusion: ANGPTL7 serves as a predictive biomarker for CCC levels and the prognosis of patients with SCS, which probably attributed to its proangiogenic properties.
