Tumor Necrosis Factor Receptor Superfamily Member 21 Induces Endothelial-Mesenchymal Transition in Coronary Artery Endothelium of Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus.
Article in Biomedicines, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
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
Diabetes mellitus (DM) is an increasing threat to human health and regarded as an important public issue. Coronary artery disease is one of the main causes of death in type 2 DM patients. However, the effect of hyperglycemia on coronary artery endothelial cells (CAECs) and the pathophysiologic mechanisms are still not well-explored. This study aims to explore the signal pathway and novel biomarkers of injury of CAECs in DM in understanding the microenvironment changes and mechanisms of diabetic heart disease. Next-generation sequence (NGS) and bioinformatics analysis to analyze the CAECs of one type 2 DM patient and one normal individual was performed, and it was found that tumor necrosis factor receptor superfamily member 21 (TNFRSF21) was a soluble factor in circulating system. Further experiments confirmed that advanced glycation end products (AGEs), the metabolite derived by hyperglycemia, increased the expression of TNFRSF21 in CAECs. TNFRSF21 induced endothelial-mesenchymal transition (EndoMT) in CAECs, resulting in increased permeability of CAECs. In addition, levels of serum TNFRSF21 were higher in type 2 DM patients with left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) than those without LVH. Serum TNFRSF21 levels were also positively correlated with the LV mass index and negatively with LV systolic function. Serum TNFRSF21 levels were associated with changes in cardiac structure and function in patients with type 2 DM. In conclusion, TNFRSF21 plays a pathogenic role in heart disease of type 2 DM, and can be used as a biomarker of the impairment of cardiac structure and function in type 2 DM patients.
