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

backgroundThyroid orbitopathy (TO) is a multi-system inflammatory disease characterized by orbital congestion, ocular surface disorders, restrictive myopathy, and skin lesions. The molecular and cellular processes of pathogenic formation of TO orbital fat tissues are not fully understood. In this study, a comparative proteomic analysis was conducted to investigate the importance of some differential proteins of orbital fat tissues in TO.

methodsThe differential proteins were analyzed by comparing the two-dimensional gel electrophoresis (2-DE) maps of the orbital fat tissues of TO with those of normal orbital fat tissues. The 2-DE results were further verified by Western blot and immunohistochemistry.

resultsFifteen up-regulated and two down-regulated proteins in TO orbital fat tissues in comparison with the control were exhibited by 2-DE maps. The over-expressed proteins including guanine nucleotide-binding protein, isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH), annexin A2, heat shock protein 60 (HSP 60), calreticulin (CALR), protein disulfide-isomerase A3 (PDIA3), spectrin, superoxide dismutase (SOD), and transitional endoplasmic reticulum ATPase (TER ATPase) may contribute to increased thyroid-stimulating hormone receptor (TSHR) expression and cell proliferation. The proteomic data of specific proteins are consistent with those determined by Western blot and immunohistochemistry.

conclusionsComparison of orbital fat proteins from thyroid orbitopathy with age-matched controls shows significant differences in the proteome, and up-regulations of the specific proteins in orbital fat tissues from TO are associated with biochemical mechanisms or capacities against endoplasmic reticulum stress, mitochondria dysfunction, and cell proliferation as well as apoptosis in TO orbital fat tissues.
