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

STUDY

objectivesAbnormal remodeling of the extracellular matrix (ECM) has been implicated in the pathogenesis of bronchopulmonary dysplasia. However, the contribution of lung parenchymal cells to ECM remodeling after mechanical injury is not well defined. The objective of these studies was to investigate in vitro the release of MMP-2 and -9 and their respective inhibitors TIMP-2 and -1, and to explore potential regulation by IL-10.

designMouse fetal epithelial cells and fibroblasts isolated on E18-19 of gestation were exposed to 20% cyclic stretch to simulate lung injury. MMP-2 and MMP-9 activity were investigated by zymography and ELISA. TIMP-1 and TIMP-2 abundance were analyzed by Western blot.

resultsWe found that mechanical stretch increased MMP-2 and decreased TIMP-2 in fibroblasts, indicating that excessive stretch promotes MMP-2 activation, expressed as the MMP-2/TIMP-2 ratio. Incubation with IL-10 did not change MMP-2 activity. In contrast, mechanical stretch of epithelial cells decreased MMP-9 activity and the MMP-9/TIMP-1 ratio by 60-70%. When IL-10 was added, mechanical stretch increased the MMP-9/TIMP-1 ratio by 50%.

conclusionsWe conclude that mechanical stretch differentially affects MMP-2/9 and their inhibitors in fetal lung cells. IL-10 modulates MMP-9 activity through a combination of effects on MMP-9 and TIMP-1 levels.
