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

Cumulative evidence suggests the up-regulation of interleukin (IL)-10 and T-regulatory (Treg) cells is implicated in anti-inflammatory effect of heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1). Thus, we postulated that induction of HO-1 could augment IL-10 and transforming growth factor (TGF)-beta production and foxp3+CD4+CD25+ Treg cell function, thereby leading to attenuation of airway inflammation. In this study, CD4+CD25+ Treg cells isolated from mouse spleen were either transfected with a HO-1 expression vector (pcDNA3HO-1) or treated with a HO-1 inducer (hemin). Up-regulation of HO-1 enhanced foxp3 expression and IL-10 secretion in the Treg cells in vitro. Next, BALB/c, C57/B6.129, and IL-10-deficient B6.129P2-Il10tm1Cgn/J mice were challenged by ovalbumin to induce airway inflammation. Consistent with in vitro findings, hemin treatment resulted in induction of HO-1 and foxp3 and production of IL-10 and membrane-bound TGF-beta1 in vivo. This was further correlated with decrease of ovalbumin-specific immunoglobulin E level and eosinophil infiltration in bronchial alveolar lavage fluid from the asthmatic mice. Furthermore, hemin significantly enhanced the biological activity of CD4+CD25+ Treg cells. This protective effect was specifically blocked by Sn-protoporphyrin, a HO-1 enzymatic inhibitor. Finally, hemin failed to up-regulate the function of CD4+CD25+ Treg cells from IL-10-deficient mice. Our study indicates that HO-1 exerts its protective effect on asthma through a mechanism mediated by foxp3+CD4+CD25+ Treg cells, IL-10, and membrane-bound TGF-beta1.
