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

Apoptotic cell (AC)-derived factors alter the physiology of macrophages (MΦs) towards a regulatory phenotype, characterized by reduced nitric oxide (NO) production. Impaired NO formation in response to AC-conditioned medium (CM) was facilitated by arginase II (ARG II) expression, which competes with inducible NO synthase for L-arginine. Here we explored signaling pathways allowing CM to upregulate ARG II in RAW264.7 MΦs. Sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P) was required and acted synergistically with a so far unidentified factor to elicit high ARG II expression. S1P activated S1P(2), since S1P(2) knockdown prevented ARG II upregulation. Furthermore, ERK5 knockdown attenuated CM-mediated ARG II protein induction. CREB was implicated as shown by EMSA analysis and decoy-oligonucleotides scavenging CREB in RAW264.7 MΦs, which blocked ARG II expression. We conclude that AC-derived S1P binds to S1P(2) and acts synergistically with other factors to activate ERK5 and concomitantly CREB. This signaling cascade shapes an anti-inflammatory MΦ phenotype by ARG II induction.
