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

During fibrogenesis, certain negative feedback loops are elicited to restrain persistent and hyperactive fibrotic responses. Activated fibroblasts have been found to acquire anti-fibrotic phenotypes. However, the specific inhibitory modulators remain largely enigmatic. Thus, the present study aimed to examine the intrinsic autoregulatory mechanisms of fibroblasts. Here, we demonstrated that angiotensin II (AngII)-primed cardiac myofibroblast moderated subsequent profibrotic activation. More importantly, this suppressive action was dependent on small extracellular vesicles (sEVs). Strikingly, small RNA sequencing identified an abundant presence of Piwi-interacting RNAs (piRNAs) in sEVs. In cultured primary cardiac fibroblasts, piRNA-62788 was induced by AngII receptor type 2 (AT
