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

background and purposePaeoniflorin (PF) has ameliorative effects on learning and memory impairment and cerebral ischaemia in rats and has protective effects against the degeneration of dopaminergic neurons in substantia nigra. The neuroprotective effects of PF are most probably derived from its anti-inflammatory property. Abnormally high levels of intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1) have been found to be associated with a wide range of inflammatory and immune responses. Here we studied whether PF regulates the levels of ICAM-1 elevated in LPS-activated differentiated human monocytic U937 cells and TNF-α-stimulated human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs). EXPERIMENTAL APPROACH: mRNA levels were evaluated by RT-PCR. Protein levels were evaluated by Western blot analysis. An immunofluorescence technique was used to estimate NF-κB translocation, and NF-κB binding to nuclear DNA was determined by EMSA. KEY

resultsPF inhibited ICAM-1 expression elevated in LPS-induced U937 cells and TNF-α-stimulated HUVECs. Although previous reports showed that PF's action is mediated by activating adenosine A₁ receptors, application of a selective adenosine A₁ receptor antagonist did not change the inhibitory effect of PF in our experiments. To elucidate the underlying mechanisms of the effect of PF, we studied its effect on signalling pathways upstream of ICAM-1 expression. PF suppressed the activation of the NF-κB pathway, which regulates the expression of ICAM-1. The TLR4 and MAPK pathways were shown not to be involved in the effects of PF in these cells. CONCLUSIONS AND IMPLICATIONS: PF inhibits ICAM-1 expression in LPS-treated U937 cells and TNF-α-stimulated HUVECs by suppressing the activation of the NF-κB pathway.
