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

objectiveMatrix metalloproteinase-12 (MMP-12) has been reported to play an important role in chronic airway inflammatory diseases, but its detailed role in allergic airway disease is not well known. In this study, we investigated the expressions of MMP-12 and the effect of S-1, an MMP-12 inhibitor, in a mouse model of allergic airway inflammation. MATERIALS AND

methodsThe expressions and activity of MMP-12 were measured by RT-PCR western blot and zymography, respectively. The locations in the airways of MMP-12 and elastin fiber were histologically studied. The mice were orally administered with S-1 during the period of antigen challenge. Bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) cells were counted, and the activity of MMP-12 in BALF was measured by zymography after the treatment with S-1.

resultsThe allergen challenge model resulted in increased eosinophil number in BALF and damage to elastin fiber. Upregulation of MMP-12 was also found in the airways of challenged mice. The increased eosinophil number in the BALF after antigen challenge was inhibited by S-1.

conclusionThese findings suggest that MMP-12 may play an important role in the eosinophil infiltration of the allergic airway.
