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

purpose of reviewCell-cell adhesion between leukocytes, platelets and endothelial cells plays a critical role in vascular inflammation and thrombus formation. This review aims at providing a comprehensive picture of the contribution of the immunoglobulin superfamily (IgSF) cell adhesion receptor Junctional Adhesion Molecule-A (JAM-A) to the process of atherosclerosis. RECENT

findingsProinflammatory and proatherogenic stimulation of endothelial cells results in redistribution of JAM-A from cell-cell junctions to the apical surface to promote monocyte adhesion and transmigration. Agonist-stimulation of platelets results in elevated surface levels of JAM-A concomitant with enhanced release of soluble JAM-A (sJAM-A). sJAM-A promotes platelet aggregation, thrombus formation, and platelet-monocyte aggregate formation. Elevated levels of sJAM-A correlate with recurrent myocardial infarction. JAM-A is expressed by several cell types implicated in atherogenesis, notably endothelial cells, platelets, and leukocytes. Proinflammatory and proatherogenic stimuli induce a redistribution of JAM-A within endothelial cells. Stimulated platelets release sJAM-A into the circulation. This review illustrates the role of JAM-A in atherogenesis and elaborates the underlying mechanisms.
