Effect of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-gamma ligand on inflammation of human gallbladder epithelial cells.
Article in World journal of gastroenterology, 2005. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
aimTo investigate the effect of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma (PPAR-gamma) and its ligand, ciglitazone, on inflammatory regulation of human gallbladder epithelial cells (HGBECs) and to assess the effect of human epithelial growth factor (hEGF) on growth of HGBECs.
methodsHGBECs were cultured in media containing hEGF or hEGF-free media. HGBECs were divided into normal control group, inflammatory control group and ciglitazone group (test group). Inflammatory control group and ciglitazone group were treated with 5 microg/L of human interleukin-1beta (hIL-1beta) to make inflammatory model of HGBECs. The ciglitazone group was treated with various concentrations of ciglitazone, a potent ligand of PPAR-gamma. Subsequently, interleukin-8 (IL-8), IL-6, and tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) concentrations in all groups were measured. The data were analyzed statistically.
resultsHGBECs were cultured in medium successfully. The longevity of HGBECs in groups containing hEGF was longer than that in hEGF-free groups. So was the number of HGBECs. The longest survival time of HGBEC was 25 d. The inflammatory model of HGBECs was obtained by treating with hIL-1beta. The concentrations of IL-6 and IL-8 in ciglitazone group were lower than those in inflammatory control group (P<0.05). The secretion of IL-6 in inflammatory control group was higher (350.31+/-37.05 microg/L) than that in normal control group (50.0+/-0.00 microg/L, P<0.001). Compared to normal control group, IL-8 concentration in inflammatory control was higher (P<0.05).
conclusionhEGF improves the growth of HGBECs in vitro. Ciglitazone inhibits the inflammation of HGBECs in vitro and has potential therapeutic effect on cholecystitis in vivo.
