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

objectivesClinical and experimental observations have suggested that bradykinin, a major activation product of the plasma kallikrein-kinin system, is involved in the pathogenesis of arthritis, but the pathogenic role of bradykinin receptors remains inconclusive. In this study we examined whether bradykinin receptors are important in the pathogenesis of anti-collagen antibody-induced arthritis (CAIA) using double receptor-deficient (B1RB2R(-/-)) mice.

methodsCAIA was induced in B1RB2R(+/+) and B1RB2R(-/-) mice by injection of an anti-collagen antibody cocktail on day 0 and lipopolysaccharide on day 3. Severity of disease was evaluated by measurement of joint diameter and histological analysis. The expression of proinflammatory cytokines in joint tissue and peripheral mononuclear cells was determined by ELISA and real-time RT-PCR.

resultsThe absent expression of B1R and B2R mRNA in B1RB2R(-/-) mice was confirmed by RT-PCR. Although B1RB2R(+/+) mice developed severe CAIA, the severity of the disease was significantly attenuated in B1RB2R(-/-) mice. In B1RB2R(+/+) mice bearing CAIA, both B1R and B2R mRNA levels were increased in joint tissue and peripheral mononuclear cells. Compared with B1RB2R(+/+) mice, the production of IL-1β and IL-6 in joint tissue and their mRNA expression in peripheral mononuclear cells were remarkably reduced in B1RB2R(-/-) mice.

conclusionThese observations provide genetic evidence that bradykinin plays an important role in the pathogenesis of CAIA. B1R, whose expression is induced in inflamed joint tissue and peripheral inflammatory cells, is important in the development of CAIA.
