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

Hypoxic pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) is a severe cardiovascular condition involving vascular remodeling and inflammation. Jagged2 (Jag2) has been implicated in various pathologies but its role in PAH remains unclear. We integrated bioinformatics analysis of transcriptomic data with in vitro and in vivo experiments to investigate Jag2's function in hypoxic PAH. We focused on primary rat pulmonary artery smooth muscle cells (PASMCs) for cellular responses and a rat model for hemodynamic changes. Jag2 was upregulated under hypoxic conditions, promoting PASMC proliferation and migration and inhibiting apoptosis through NADPH oxidase 2 (NOX2)/reactive oxygen species (ROS) signaling. Inhibition of Jag2 ameliorated hemodynamic changes and vascular remodeling in the PAH rat model. Jag2 activation of NOX2/ROS signaling is a critical driver of vascular inflammation and remodeling in hypoxic PAH, suggesting the Jag2/NOX2 axis as a therapeutic target.
