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

Tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinases-3 (TIMP-3) is known to inhibit matrix metalloproteinases, aggrecanases, and tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-alpha-converting enzyme (TACE, ADAM17). These metalloproteases participate in different aspects of joint destruction in inflammatory arthritis. To determine the relative importance of this inhibitor in joint pathology, wild-type and Timp3-/- mice were immunized with methylated bovine serum albumin followed by arthritis induction by intra-articular injection of the same antigen. Animals were monitored for up to 14 days after challenge, and joint tissues were analyzed by routine and Safranin O staining and for the presence of aggrecan neoepitopes produced by metalloprotease cleavage. Serum TNF-alpha was measured by immunoassay. Compared to wild-type animals, Timp3-/- mice showed a dramatic increase in the initial inflammatory response to intra-articular antigen injection, and serum TNF-alpha levels were greatly elevated in the Timp3-/- animals after immunization. However, these differences in clinical features disappeared by days 7 to 14. No difference in Safranin O staining or aggrecan cleavage site neoepitope abundance was seen. Thus, in inflammatory joint disease TIMP-3 likely dampens the inflammatory response of TNF-alpha by reducing ADAM17 activity.
