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

Low density lipoprotein (LDL) interactions with the endothelium are thought to play a major role in the development of atherosclerosis. The mechanism(s) involved are not fully understood, although several lines of evidence support the idea that oxidation of LDL increases its atherogenicity. In this study we report for the first time that native LDL (n-LDL) binding to the LDL receptor (100-700 mug/ml) triggers a rise in intracellular calcium which acts as a second messenger to induce vascular cell adhesion molecule-1 (VCAM-1) expression in human coronary artery (HCAEC) and pig aortic endothelial cells (PAEC) and VCAM-1 and E-selectin expression in human aortic (HAEC) endothelial cells. Preincubation of HCAEC with a monoclonal antibody (IgGC7) to the classical LDL receptor or pretreatment with pertussis toxin blocked the n-LDL-induced calcium transients. Preincubation of each of the endothelial cell lines with the calcium chelator 1,-2-bis(o-aminophenoxy)ethane-N,N,N', N'-tetraacetic acetomethyl ester (BAPTA/AM) prevented the expression of VCAM-1 and E-selectin. The increase in VCAM-1 by n-LDL results in increased monocyte binding to HCAEC which can be attenuated by inhibiting the intracellular calcium rise or by blocking the VCAM-1 binding sites. These studies in human and pig endothelial cells link calcium signaling conferred by n-LDL to mechanisms controlling the expression of endothelial cell adhesion molecules involved in atherogenesis.
