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

The expression of oncofetal H19 RNA and its localization/cellular source was analyzed in synovial tissue (ST) and isolated synovial macrophages (Mphi) or synovial fibroblasts (SFBs) by reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR), in situ hybridization, and immunohistochemistry. RT-PCR showed significantly higher H19 expression in ST from patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) (P = 0.000) and osteoarthritis (OA) (P = 0.009) than in normal/joint trauma controls (N/JT), but comparable levels in reactive arthritis. In situ hybridization demonstrated strong signals in all RA-ST samples (n = 8), with > or =85% positive cells in the lining layer, diffuse infiltrates, and stroma regions. In lymphoid aggregates and endothelial cells only 20% were positive. RA-ST contained a significantly higher percentage of strongly positive lining cells than OA-ST and N/JT-ST. H19 RNA was expressed in both Mphi and SFBs, as confirmed by RT-PCR in isolated RA Mphi and SFBs (n = 3). In RA-SFBs, low constitutive H19 RNA expression in culture (10% fetal calf serum) was strongly increased on starvation (3.5-fold, 1% fetal calf serum), with or without the addition of interleukin-1beta (10 to 100 U/ml), tumor necrosis factor-alpha (1 to 25 ng/ml), or platelet-derived growth factor-BB (2.5 to 10 U/ml). In OA-SFBs, this starvation-induced increase was lower (twofold), reaching significant differences compared with RA-SFBs after stimulation with interleukin-1beta and platelet-derived growth factor-BB. In both RA- and OA-SFBs, the MAP-kinase ERK-1/2 pathway and the phosphatidylinositol-3 kinase pathway influenced H19 RNA expression, as shown by inhibitor studies. Significant overexpression of H19 RNA and its increased sensitivity to starvation/cytokine regulation in RA suggests a pathogenetic role of this oncofetal gene, possibly reflecting embryonal dedifferentiation of the adult ST and/or ongoing inflammatory/oxidative stress.
