Importance of LXR-alpha transcriptome in the modulation of innate immunity.
Article in Molecular and cellular biochemistry, 2006. 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
Liver-X-Receptor alpha (LXR-alpha) that belongs to nuclear receptor/transcriptional factor family has been recognized to play crucial role in the regulation of lipid metabolism and inflammation. Consequently, the present study was addressed to explore the functional genomics of LXR-alpha within human blood immunomodulatory cells. The results of such a study, which involved LXR-alpha gene silencing through siRNA approach, revealed that: (a) the mRNA expression of genes coding for IL-8, IL-4, CX3CR1, LDLR, hTERT and c-myc was significantly elevated in response to LXR-alpha gene silencing whereas mRNA expression of genes coding for PPARs(alpha, gamma), CD36 and Dicer could not be detected; (b) the expression of Receptor C( k ) protein remained unaffected; (c) the mRNA expression of IFN-gamma gene was down regulated in LXR-alpha knockdown cells. Based upon these results we propose that LXR-alpha gene plays a crucial role in the regulation of innate immunity at the genomic level.
