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

Oxidative stress has been implicated in the pathogenesis of several inflammatory lung disorders including chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), due to its effect on pro-inflammatory gene transcription. Cigarette smoke-mediated oxidative stress activates NF-kappaB-dependent transcription of pro-inflammatory mediators either through activation of inhibitor kappaB-alpha kinase (IKK) and/or the enhanced recruitment and activation of transcriptional co-activators. Enhanced NF-kappaB-co-activator complex formation results in targeted increase in chromatin modifications, such as histone acetylation leading to inflammatory gene transcription. NF-kappaB-dependent gene expression, at least in part, is regulated by changes in deacetylases such as histone deacetylases (HDACs) and sirtuins. Cigarette smoke and oxidants also alter the activity of HDACs and sirtuins by post-translational modifications by protein carbonylation and nitration, and in doing so further induce gene expression of pro-inflammatory mediators by chromatin modifications. In addition, cigarette smoke/oxidants can reduce glucocorticoid sensitivity by attenuating HDAC2 activity and expression, which may account for the glucocorticoid insensitivity in patients with COPD. Understanding the mechanisms of NF-kappaB regulation, and the balance between histone acetylation and deacetylation may lead to the development of novel therapies based on the pharmacological manipulation of IKK and deacetylases in lung inflammation and injury.
