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

objectivePreviously we identified palmitoyl-, oleoyl- linoleoyl-, and arachidonoyl-lysophosph-atidylcholine (LPC 16:0, 18:1, 18:2 and 20:4) as the most prominent LPC species generated by endothelial lipase (EL). In the present study, we examined the capacity of those LPC to modulate expression of cyclooxygenase (COX)-2 in vascular endothelial cells. METHODS &

resultsLPC 16:0 and 20:4 promoted both COX-2 mRNA- and protein synthesis with different potencies and kinetics. While LPC 18:1 induced a weak and transient increase in COX-2 mRNA, but not protein, LPC 18:2 increased COX-2 protein, without impacting mRNA. Chelation of intracellular Ca(2+) and inhibition of p38 MAPK markedly attenuated 16:0 LPC- and 20:4 LPC- elicited induction of COX-2 expression, whereas inhibition of phospholipase C (PLC) attenuated only the effect of 16:0 LPC. LPC 16:0 and 20:4 differed markedly in their potencies to increase cytosolic Ca(2+) concentration and in the kinetics of p38 MAPK activation. While the effects of 16:0 and 20:4 LPC on COX-2 expression were profoundly sensitive to silencing of either c-Jun or p65 (NF-κB), respectively, silencing of cyclic AMP responsive element binding protein (CREB) attenuated markedly the effect of both LPC.

conclusionOur results indicate that the tested LPC species are capable of inducing COX-2 expression, whereby the efficacy and the relative contribution of underlying signaling mechanisms markedly differ, due to the length and degree of saturation of LPC acyl chains.
