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

abstractHydrogen sulfide (H 2 S), an important gaseous signaling molecule, plays a critical role in maintaining vascular homeostasis. H 2 S participates in numerous biological functions, including redox regulation, interactions with other signaling molecules, and post-translational modifications of proteins through sulfhydration. Additionally, H 2 S influences key pathological processes such as inflammation, oxidative stress, and cell apoptosis. Dysregulation of endogenous H 2 S metabolism has been closely linked to the development of various vascular diseases, including aortic aneurysms, aortic dissection, atherosclerosis, and thrombotic conditions. Various endogenous and exogenous H 2 S donors have been developed, and these donors have demonstrated promising effects in preclinical models of vascular diseases such as atherosclerosis, pulmonary hypertension, and thrombosis by modulating oxidative stress, inflammatory pathways, and vascular remodeling. This review consolidates the current knowledge on the effects of H 2 S on vascular function and offers a comprehensive summary of recent advancements in the development and application of H 2 S donors in vascular disease research.
