Targeting endothelial cells: the pathological mechanisms and therapeutic innovations in pulmonary arterial hypertension.
Review in Frontiers in cell and developmental biology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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.
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
Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) is a fatal disease with high mortality, which is characterized by pulmonary vascular remodeling. Current clinical treatments mainly focus on dilating vascular and relieving pulmonary artery pressure. However, there is still no effective treatment available to reverse vascular remodeling. Endothelial cells (ECs) play an important role in vascular function and repair. Endothelial dysfunction is a key factor inducing vascular remodeling and PAH. The endothelial - mesenchymal transition (EndMT), along with the abnormal apoptosis and proliferation of endothelial cells (ECs) disrupt vascular homeostasis and drive pulmonary artery remodeling. These regulated by the TGF - β/BMP, PI3K/Akt, and JAK - STAT pathways. Moreover, the secretion of active factors by ECs and the crosstalk between ECs and smooth muscle cells (SMCs) also influence vascular remodeling. Targeting ECs shows certain application prospects in the treatment and diagnosis of PAH. This article elaborates on the role and mechanisms of ECs in PAH, and reviews their diagnostic markers and therapeutic targets for the early intervention and effective management of PAH.
