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

backgroundNeutrophil elastase (NE) is a major secretory product from activated neutrophils and a major contributor to tissue destruction. However, little is known about the pathogenic contribution of NE to ulcerative colitis (UC). This study was designed to investigate the contribution of NE by measuring NE activity in plasma and colonic mucosal tissue from UC patients and a murine acute colitis model, and to elucidate the therapeutic effect of the NE-specific inhibitor ONO-5046.

methodsThe NE enzyme activities in plasma and colonic mucosal tissue from UC patients were directly measured using an enzyme-substrate reaction. Acute colitis was induced in mice by administration of 1.5% dextran sulfate sodium (DSS) for 5 days. DSS-induced colitis mice were then treated with ONO-5046 (50 mg/kg body weight) intraperitoneally twice a day.

resultsIn UC patients, the NE enzyme activity was significantly elevated in both the plasma and colonic mucosal tissue compared with healthy controls. In DSS-induced colitis mice, the NE enzyme activity increased in parallel with the disease development. ONO-5046 showed therapeutic effects in DSS-treated mice by significantly reducing weight loss and histological score. ONO-5046 suppressed the NE enzyme activities in both plasma and culture supernatant of colonic mucosa from DSS-induced colitis mice.

conclusionsONO-5046, a specific NE inhibitor, prevented the development of DSS-induced colitis in mice. NE therefore represents a promising target for the treatment of UC patients.
