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 study the relationship between interleukin-1beta (IL-1beta) up-regulating tissue inhibitor of matrix metalloproteinase-1 (TIMMP-1) mRNA expression and phosphorylation of both c-jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) and p38 in rat hepatic stellate cells (HSC).
methodsRT-PCR was performed to measure the expression of TIMMP-1 mRNA in rat HSC. Western blot was performed to measure IL-1beta-induced JNK and p38 activities in rat HSC.
resultsTIMMP-1 mRNA expression (1.191+/-0.079) was much higher after treatment with IL-1beta (10 ng/mL) for 24 h than in control group (0.545+/-0.091) (P<0.01). IL-1beta activated JNK and p38 in a time-dependent manner. After stimulation with IL-1beta for 0, 5, 15, 30, 60 and 120 min,the JNK activity was 0.982+/-0.299,1.501+/-0.720, 2.133+/-0.882, 3.360+/-0.452, 2.181+/-0.789, and 1.385+/-0.368, respectively. There was a significant difference in JNK activity at 15 min (P<0.01), 30 min (P<0.01) and 60 min (P<0.01) in comparison to that at 0 min. The p38 activity was 1.061+/-0.310,2.050+/-0.863, 2.380+/-0.573, 2.973+/-0.953, 2.421+/-0.793, and 1.755+/-0.433 at the 6 time points (0, 5, 15, 30, 60 and 120 min) respectively. There was a significant difference in p38 activity at 5 min (P<0.05),15 min (P<0.01), 30 min (P<0.01) and 60 min (P<0.01) compared to that at 0 min.TIMMP-1 mRNA expression trended to decrease in 3 groups pretreated with different concentrations of SP600125 (10 micromol/L, 1.022+/-0.113; 20 micromol/L, 0.869+/-0.070; 40 micromol/L, 0.666+/-0.123). Their decreases were all significant (P<0.05, P<0.01, P<0.01) in comparison to control group (without SP600125 treatment, 1.163+/-0.107). In the other 3 groups pretreated with different concentrations of SB203580 (10 micromol/L, 1.507+/-0.099; 20 micromol/L, 1.698+/-0.107; 40 micromol/L,1.857+/-0.054), the expression of TIMMP-1 mRNA increased. Their levels were higher than those in the control group (without SB203580 treatment, 1.027+/-0.061) with a significant statistical significance (P<0.01).
conclusionIL-1beta has a direct action on hepatic fibrosis by up-regulating TIMMP-1 mRNA expression in rat HSC. JNK and p38 mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPKs) are involved in IL-1beta-induced TIMMP-1 gene expression,and play a distinct role in this process, indicating that p38 and JNK pathways cooperatively mediate TIMP-1 mRNA expression in rat HSC.
