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

Di-(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (DEHP) in house dust is associated with asthma and allergic inflammatory symptoms in children. This study aimed to examine an inhibitory effect of a flavonoid apigenin on DEHP-stimulated inflammatory responses in human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs). We found that apigenin significantly suppressed DEHP-stimulated expression of intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1) at the mRNA and protein levels and subsequently inhibited the adhesion of THP-1 monocytic cells to HUVECs. Treatment with apigenin also led to a dose-dependent inhibition of mRNA and protein expression of interleukin (IL)-6 and IL-8 in DEHP-stimulated HUVECs. Moreover, pretreatment with apigenin partially inhibited the DEHP-induced activation of c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) but not the degradation of IκBα or the phosphorylation of extracellular-regulated kinase (ERK)1/2, indicating that the inhibitory effect of apigenin on the expression of IL-6, IL-8, and ICAM-1 may be mediated by JNK pathway but not IκBα/nuclear factor-κB or ERK/mitogen-activated protein kinase pathway. Furthermore, apigenin reduced the release of IL-6, IL-8, and ICAM-1 and inhibited compound 48/80-induced systemic anaphylaxis in vivo. These results suggest that apigenin can be used as a therapeutic means for the treatment of DEHP-associated allergic disorders.
