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

P38 mitogen-activated protein kinases (p38 MAPK) and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) play important roles in oxidative stress-induced apoptosis in cardiac myocytes. However, the regulation and functional role of cross-talk between p38 MAPK and TNF-α pathways have not yet been fully characterized in cardiac myocytes. In this study, we found that inhibition of p38 MAPK with SB-203580 (SB) reduced H(2)O(2)-stimulated secretion of TNF-α, whereas pre-activation of p38 MAPK with sodium arsenite (SA) enhanced H(2)O(2)-stimulated secretion of TNF-α. In addition, pretreatment of cells with TNF-α increased basal and H(2)O(2)-stimulated p38 MAPK and apoptosis of cardiac myocytes, and p38 MAPK-associated apoptosis of cardiac myocytes induced by TNF-α was blocked by inhibition of p38 MAPK with SB. Finally, H(2)O(2)-induced apoptosis was attenuated by the inhibitors of p38 MAPK or reactive oxygen species (ROS), whereas it was enhanced by p38 MAPK agonist SA. These results suggest that H(2)O(2)-induced secretion of TNF-α increases apoptosis of cardiac myocytes through ROS-dependent activation of p38 MAPK. This may represent a novel mechanism that TNF-α partly interplays with p38 MAPK pathways during oxidative stress-modulated apoptosis in cardiac myocytes.
