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

OBJECTIVE AND

designActivations of the complement C5a (C5a) and the urokinase-type plasminogen activator (uPA) are commonly seen together during sepsis. However, the mechanism linking these two important pathways remains elusive. MATERIAL, METHODS AND TREATMENT: We used the C57BL/6 J mice model of sepsis induced by cecal ligation puncture (CLP) procedure, injected anti-C5aR or rottlerin through the tail vein to neutralize C5aR or PKC-δ, and then isolated peritoneal macrophages. Total RNA was isolated from the cells and analyzed by quantitative PCR.

resultsOur study revealed that neutralizing C5aR markedly inhibited sepsis-induced uPA receptor (uPAR) expression and its downstream signaling in macrophage. Similarly, neutralizing uPAR suppressed sepsis activation of C5a signaling. Importantly, inhibition of PKC-δ largely blocked sepsis-induced expression of C5aR and uPAR.

conclusionsOur study demonstrates a crosstalk between the complement C5a signaling and the fibrinolytic uPA pathways, which may depend on each other to maintain their expression and signaling, and reveals a central role of PKC-δ in mediating sepsis-induced activation of these pathways.
