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

Histone deacetylase 3 (HDAC3) is an epigenetic modifying enzyme closely linked to the development of atherosclerosis. Endothelial inflammation is a critical factor in atherosclerosis. However, the role of HDAC3 in mediating epigenetic modifications and regulating endothelial inflammation in atherosclerosis remains unclear. This study aims to investigate the impact of HDAC3 on endothelial inflammation and its contribution to atherosclerosis. Firstly, single-cell transcriptomic analysis identified elevated expression of HDAC3 and nucleotide-binding oligomerization domain-like receptor protein 3 (NLRP3) in inflammatory endothelial cells of atherosclerotic plaques in symptomatic patients. Endothelial-specific knockout HDAC3 in an apolipoprotein E knockout (ApoE
