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 large set of chemokines is highly up-regulated in human chondrocytes in response to IL-1β (Sandell, L. J., Xing, X., Franz, C., Davies, S., Chang, L. W., and Patra, D. (2008) Osteoarthr. Cartil. 16, 1560-1571). To investigate the mechanism of transcriptional regulation, deletion constructs of selected chemokine gene promoters, the human CCL3 (MIP-1α) and CCL4 (MIP-1β), were transfected into human chondrocytes with or without IL-1β. The results show that an IL-1β-responsive element is located between bp -300 and -140 of the CCL3 promoter and between bp -222 and -100 of the CCL4 promoter. Because both of these elements contain CCAAT/enhancer-binding protein β (C/EBPβ) motifs, the function of C/EBPβ was examined. IL-1β stimulated the expression of C/EBPβ, and the direct binding of C/EBPβ to the C/EBPβ motif was confirmed by EMSA and ChIP analyses. The -300 bp CCL3 promoter and -222 bp CCL4 promoter were strongly up-regulated by co-transfection with the C/EBPβ expression vector. Mutation of the C/EBPβ motif and reduction of C/EBPβ expression by siRNA decreased the up-regulation. Additionally, another cytokine-related transcription factor, NF-κB, was also shown to be involved in the up-regulation of chemokines in response to IL-1β, and the binding site was identified. The regulation of C/EBPβ and NF-κB was confirmed by the inhibition by C/EBPβ and NF-κB and by transfection with C/EBPβ and NF-κB expression vectors in the presence or absence of IL-1β. Taken together, our results suggest that C/EBPβ and NF-κB are both involved in the IL-1β-responsive up-regulation of chemokine genes in human chondrocytes. Time course experiments indicated that C/EBPβ gradually and steadily induces chemokine up-regulation, whereas NF-κB activity was highest at the early stage of chemokine up-regulation.
