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

Guanylate-binding protein-1 (GBP-1) is an interferon inducible large GTPase involved in endothelial cell proliferation and invasion. In this report, expression and function of GBP-1 were investigated in vitro in intestinal epithelia after exposure to interferon-gamma and in human colonic mucosa from individuals with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). Interestingly, in contrast to other epithelia, GBP-1 distributed to the plasma membrane in intestinal epithelial cells where it colocalized with the tight junction protein coxsackie- and adenovirus receptor. In addition, expression of GBP-1 was upregulated in colonic epithelia of individuals with IBD. Downregulation of GBP-1 by siRNA resulted in enhanced permeability that correlated with increased apoptosis. Indeed, inhibition of caspase activity prevented the inhibition of barrier formation induced by the loss of GBP-1. These data suggest that GBP-1 is a novel marker of intestinal mucosal inflammation that may protect against epithelial apoptosis induced by inflammatory cytokines and subsequent loss of barrier function.
