Combined Pharmacological Conditioning of Endothelial Cells for Improved Vascular Graft Endothelialization.
Article in International journal of molecular sciences, 2025. 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
The development of functional endothelial monolayers on synthetic vascular grafts remains challenging, particularly for small-diameter vessels (<6 mm) prone to thrombosis. Here, we present a pharmacological strategy combining 8-(4-chlorophenylthio) adenosine 3',5'-cyclic monophosphate sodium salt (pCPT-cAMP, a tight junction promoter) with nitric oxide/cGMP pathway agonists 3-morpholinosydnonimine (SIN-1), captopril, and sildenafil) to enhance endothelialization. In human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs), this four-agent cocktail induced a flat, extended phenotype with a 3-fold increased cell area and 57.5% fewer cells required for surface coverage compared to controls. Immunofluorescence analysis revealed enhanced ZO-1 expression and continuous tight junction formation, while sustained nitric oxide (NO) production (3.9-fold increase) and restored prostacyclin (PGI
