The immune response to arterial damage in a mouse model of intermittent hypoxia: a transcriptomics analysis.
Article in Sleep & breathing = Schlaf & Atmung, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
purposeMice can develop arterial damage and even atherosclerosis under intermittent hypoxia (IH); however, the specific mechanism of arterial damage induced by IH remains unclear. Hence, this research aimed to illustrate the underlying mechanism linking IH to arterial injury. MATERIALS AND
methodsThe differential gene expression of the thoracic aorta under normoxia or IH mice was analyzed utilizing RNA sequencing. Furthermore, GO, KEGG pathway, and CIBERSORT analyses were carried out. For verification of the expression of candidate genes affected by IH, quantitative RT-qPCR (qRT-PCR) was conducted. Immunohistochemical (IHC) staining revealed immune cell infiltration in the thoracic aorta.
resultsThe thickness of the intima-media of the mouse aorta was increased, and the fiber structure was disordered under IH. Transcriptomics analysis showed that in the aorta, 1137 upregulated genes and 707 downregulated genes were affected by IH, significantly related to the activation of the immune system and cell adhesion. Furthermore, B cell infiltration around the aorta was observed under IH.
conclusionsIH might lead to structural changes in the aorta by activating the immune response and enhancing cell adhesion.
