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

Substances of abuse, such as opiates, and astroglial-derived proinflammatory cytokines, such as interleukin (IL)-1beta, likely contribute to the neuroinflammatory and neurodegenerative processes observed in NeuroAIDS in injection drug users. Furthermore, uncontrolled synthesis and activation of complement component C3 in the brain can also lead to inflammation and neurodegeneration. We hypothesized that morphine may alter regulation of the C3 gene by IL-1beta in astrocytes. Our studies demonstrate that IL-1beta induces C3 promoter activity in a CAAT/enhancer-binding protein (C/EBP)-dependent manner. Inhibition of IL-1beta mediated C3 promoter activation by the dominant negative mutant of p38-alpha mitogen-activated protein kinase suggests that IL-1beta induces C3 expression through the activation of C/EBP. Morphine (0.01 microM) in combination with IL-1beta further induced C3 promoter activity. Similarly, the C/EBP-beta isoform liver activating protein and C/EBP-delta-induced C3 promoter activity were upregulated by morphine and IL-1beta. Taken together, this study illustrates that morphine modulates IL-1beta-mediated C3 expression in astrocytic cells.
