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

Most previous studies that determined the effect of estradiol on angiogenesis used endothelial cells from nonpituitary sources. Because pituitary tumor tissue receives its blood supply via portal and arterial circulation, it is important to use pituitary-derived endothelial cells in studying pituitary angiogenesis. We have developed a magnetic separation technique to isolate endothelial cells from pituitary tissues and have characterized these cells in primary cultures. Endothelial cells of the pituitary showed the existence of endothelial cell marker, CD31, and of von Willebrand factor protein. These cells in cultures also showed immunoreactivity of estrogen receptors alpha and beta. The angiogenic factors, vascular endothelial growth factor and basic fibroblast growth factor, significantly increased proliferation and migration of the pituitary-derived endothelial cells in primary cultures. These results suggest that a magnetic separation technique can be used for enrichment of pituitary-derived endothelial cells for determination of cellular mechanisms governing the vascularization in the pituitary.
