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

β-1,4-galactosyltransferase-I (β-1,4-GalT-I) plays a critical role in the initiation and maintenance of peripheral nervous system inflammatory reaction. However, the exact function of β-1,4-GalT-I in the regulation of SCs proliferation and apoptosis remains unclear. In this study, we found that low concentration of tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α) induced SCs proliferation, while high concentration of TNF-α induced SCs apoptosis. Meanwhile, the expressions of β-1,4-GalT-I, TNFR1, and TNFR2 were changed following. When β-1,4-GalT I overexpression, low concentration of TNF-α-induced SCs proliferation was partially repressed. Concurrently, the activity of ERK1/2 was decreased. While knocking down β-1,4-GalT I expression, high concentration of TNF-α-induced SCs apoptosis was partially rescued. Consistent with this, the activity of P38 and JNK were decreased. We also found anti-TNFR2 antibody suppressed low concentration of TNF-α-induced SCs proliferation, while anti-TNFR1 antibody inhibited high concentration of TNF-α-induced SCs apoptosis. Thus, present data show that β-1,4-GalT I may play an important role in SCs proliferation and apoptosis induced by TNF-α via different signal pathways and TNFR.
