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

Hepatocyte lipoapoptosis induced by saturated free fatty acids (FFA) contributes to hepatic inflammation in lipotoxic liver injury, and the cellular mechanisms involved have not been defined. Recent studies have shown that apoptosis in nonhepatic cells stimulates ATP release via activation of pannexin1 (panx1), and extracellular ATP functions as a proinflammatory signal for recruitment and activation of the inflammatory cells. However, it is not known whether lipoapoptosis stimulates ATP release in liver cells. We found that lipoapoptosis induced by saturated FFA stimulated ATP release in liver cells that increased extracellular ATP concentration by more than fivefold above the values observed in healthy cells. This sustained pathophysiological ATP release was not dependent on caspase-3/7 activation. Inhibition of c-Jun NH(2)-terminal kinase (JNK), a key mediator of lipoapoptosis, with SP600125 blocked pathophysiological ATP release in a dose-dependent manner. RT-PCR analysis indicated that panx1 is expressed in hepatocytes and multiple liver cell lines. Notably, inhibition of panx1 expression with short hairpin (sh)RNA inhibited in part pathophysiological ATP release. Moreover, lipoapoptosis stimulated uptake of a membrane impermeable dye YoPro-1 (indicative of panx1 activation), which was inhibited by panx1 shRNA, probenecid, and mefloquine. These results suggest that panx1 contributes to pathophysiological ATP release in lipoapoptosis induced by saturated FFA. Thus panx1 may play an important role in hepatic inflammation by mediating an increase in extracellular ATP concentration in lipotoxic liver injury.
