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

Increased inflammatory response plays a significant role in the vascular pathophysiology in preeclampsia. However, the mechanism for increased inflammatory response in preeclampsia is largely unknown. Interleukin (IL)-6 levels are elevated in women with preeclampsia. IL-6 and its receptors, IL-6R and glycoprotein (gp)130, play a critical role in mediating antiinflammatory response via induction of SOCS-3 (suppressor of cytokine signaling-3). However, IL-6 receptor levels and expressions have not been studied in preeclampsia. In this study, we measured IL-6 and its 2 soluble receptors, soluble IL-6R and soluble gp130, in maternal plasma from normal and preeclamptic pregnant women and found that not only IL-6 but also soluble gp130 levels were significantly higher in preeclamptic women than in normotensive pregnant controls. We further examined IL-6R, gp130, and SOCS-3 expressions in maternal vessels and leukocytes and found that gp130 and SOCS-3 expressions were downregulated in both vessel endothelium and leukocytes from preeclampsia. Different patterns for IL-6R and gp130 expressions were found. IL-6R expression was also downregulated in leukocytes from preeclampsia. Our results suggest that increased plasma soluble gp130/soluble IL-6R/IL-6 ratio and reduced membrane transsignaling gp130 expression could contribute to decreased SOCS-3 expression and subsequent reduction in SOCS-3 antiinflammatory activity in women with preeclampsia. Thus, reduced gp130 and SOCS-3 expressions may offer, at least in part, a plausible explanation of reduced antiinflammatory protection in the maternal vascular system in preeclampsia.
