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

aimEmerging evidences indicate that heat-shock protein 90 (HSP90) is associated with atherogenesis. However, the effect of HSP90 on plaque stability is largely unknown. In this study, we explored the role of HSP90 in plaque development and its regulatory mechanisms on vasculature.

methodsHeat-shock protein90-overexpression lentivirus (Lenti-HSP90) was used to transfect apoE

resultsAs a result, HSP90 gene overexpression led to reduction in en face plaque area and increase in unstable plaque with heavier accumulation of lipids. Concomitantly, more macrophages, less smooth muscle cells, and collagen were generated, suggesting aggravated inflammation. However, inhibition of HSP90 with 17-AAG, a HSP90-inhibitor, induced opposing effects. Moreover, HSP90 upregulated plaque MMP-8, which might be the underlying mechanism of the change in plaque vulnerability index. Further, the translocation of NF-κB was promoted by HSP90, while inhibition of NF-κB significantly reduced MMP-8 production, which is upregulated by HSP90.

conclusionsThese findings suggested that HSP90 governs plaque development and vulnerability, as well as inflammation, at least in part via MMP-8 and NF-κB signaling pathways.
