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

Arachidonic acid is converted to prostaglandin E(2) (PGE(2)) by a sequential enzymatic reaction performed by two isoenzyme groups, cyclooxygenases (COX-1 and COX-2) and terminal prostaglandin E synthases (cPGES, mPGES-1, and mPGES-2). mPGES-1 is widely considered to be the final enzyme regulating COX-2-dependent PGE(2) synthesis. These generalizations have been based in most part on experiments utilizing gene expression analyses of cell lines and tumor tissue. To assess the relevance of these generalizations to a native mammalian tissue, we used isolated human and rodent pancreatic islets to examine interleukin (IL)-1β-induced PGE(2) production, because PGE(2) has been shown to mediate IL-1β inhibition of islet function. Rat islets constitutively expressed mRNAs of COX-1, COX-2, cPGES, and mPGES-1. As expected, IL-1β increased mRNA levels for COX-2 and mPGES-1, but not for COX-1 or cPGES. Basal protein levels of COX-1, cPGES, and mPGES-2 were readily detected in whole cell extracts but were not regulated by IL-1β. IL-1β increased protein levels of COX-2, but unexpectedly mPGES-1 protein levels were low and unaffected. In microsomal extracts, mPGES-1 protein was barely detectable in rat islets but clearly present in human islets; however, in neither case did IL-1β increase mPGES-1 protein levels. To further assess the importance of mPGES-1 to IL-1β regulation of an islet physiologic response, glucose-stimulated insulin secretion was examined in isolated islets of WT and mPGES-1-deficient mice. IL-1β inhibited glucose-stimulated insulin secretion equally in both WT and mPGES-1(-/-) islets, indicating that COX-2, not mPGES-1, mediates IL-1β-induced PGE(2) production and subsequent inhibition of insulin secretion.
