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

Vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) reversibly coordinate the expression of VSMC-specific genes and the genes required for cell cycle progression. Here we demonstrate that isoforms of the MEF2/RSRF transcription factor are expressed in VSMCs and in vascular tissue. The MEF2A DNA-binding activity was upregulated when quiescent VSMCs were stimulated to proliferate with serum mitogens. The serum-induction of MEF2A DNA-binding activity occurred approximately 4 h following serum activation, and this correlated with an increase in the level of MEF2A protein without changes in the level of MEF2A mRNA or protein stability. These results indicate that MEF2A induction by serum is regulated at the level of translation.
