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

Interleukin (IL)-15 is an important inflammatory cytokine and plays a key role in autoimmune disease. At present, IL-15 gene expression and regulation related to many innate immunity trigger signals have been clarified in some specific cell types, but the relationship of IL-6 and IL-15 in the human keratinocyte cell line (HaCaT) is unknown. In this study, we investigated the effect of IL-6 on the expression of IL-15 and selected signaling pathways in HaCaT cells. Results demonstrated that IL-6 up-regulated the expression of IL-15 both at the mRNA and protein levels. Meanwhile, IL-6 was able to activate MAPKs-ERK1/2 and PI3K-AKT signaling pathways. Furthermore, the high expression of IL-15 induced by IL-6 was down-regulated while MAPKs-ERK1/2 and PI3K-AKT signaling pathways were, respectively, blocked by PD98059 and LY294002. These findings indicate that the expression of IL-15 up-regulated by IL-6 is associated with MAPKs-ERK1/2 and PI3K-AKT signaling pathways in HaCaT cells.
