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

backgroundBronchial asthma is characterized by airway inflammation and reversible obstruction. Since the gold standard of therapy, a combination of anti-inflammatory corticosteroids and bronchodilatory β(2) agonists, has recently been discussed to be related to an increased mortality, there is a need for novel therapeutic pathways.

objectiveA new experimental concept that encompasses the vasoactive intestinal peptide/pituitary adenylate cyclase activating peptide (PACAP) family of receptors by demonstrating the anti-inflammatory effects of the PACAP receptor 1 (PAC1R) in a murine model of allergic asthma is described.

methodsPAC1R expression was investigated in lung tissue and isolated dendritic cells (DCs) via real-time PCR. Ovalbumin (OVA)-induced asthma models were used in PAC1R-deficient mice and BALB/c mice treated with PAC1R agonist maxadilan (MAX). Bronchoalveolar lavages have been performed and investigated at the cellular and cytokine levels. Fluorescence staining of a frozen lung section has been performed to detect eosinophil granulocytes in lung tissue. Plasma IgE levels have been quantified via the ELISA technique. Lung function was determined using head-out body plethysmography or whole-body plethysmography.

resultsIncreased PAC1R mRNA expression in lung tissue was present under inflammatory conditions. PAC1R expression was detected on DCs. In OVA-induced asthma models, which were applied to PAC1R-deficient mice (PAC1R(-/-)) and to BALB/c mice treated with the specific PAC1R agonist MAX, PAC1R deficiency resulted in inflammatory effects, while agonistic stimulation resulted in anti-inflammatory effects. No effects on lung function were detected both in the gene-depletion and in the pharmacologic studies. In summary, here, we demonstrate that anti-inflammatory effects can be achieved via PAC1R.

conclusionPAC1R agonists may represent a promising target for an anti-inflammatory therapy in airway diseases such as bronchial asthma.
