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

A monofunctional analog of the chemical warfare agent sulfur mustard (HD), 2-chloroethyl ethyl sulfide (CEES), induces tissue damage similar to HD. Herein we studied the molecular mechanisms associated with CEES-induced skin inflammation and toxicity in SKH-1 hairless mice. Topical CEES exposure caused an increase in oxidative stress as observed by enhanced 4-hydroxynonenal and 5,5-dimethyl-2-(8-octanoic acid)-1-pyrroline N-oxide protein adduct formation and an increase in protein oxidation. The CEES-induced increase in the formation of 8-oxo-2-deoxyguanosine indicated DNA oxidation. CEES exposure instigated an increase in the phosphorylation of mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPKs; ERK1/2, JNK, and p38). After CEES exposure, a significant increase in the phosphorylation of Akt at Ser473 and Thr308 was observed as well as upregulation of its upstream effector, PDK1, in mouse skin tissue. Subsequently, CEES exposure caused activation of AP-1 family proteins and the NF-kappaB pathway, including phosphorylation and degradation of IkappaBalpha in addition to phosphorylation of the NF-kappaB essential modulator. Collectively, our results indicate that CEES induces oxidative stress and the activation of the transcription factors AP-1 and NF-kappaB via upstream signaling pathways including MAPKs and Akt in SKH-1 hairless mouse skin. These novel molecular targets could be supportive in the development of prophylactic and therapeutic interventions against HD-related skin injury.
