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

background and purposeActivation of mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPKs), particularly c-jun-N-terminal kinases (JNK) and p38 exacerbates stroke injury by provoking pro-apoptotic and pro-inflammatory cellular signaling. MAPK phosphatase-1 (MKP-1) restrains the over-activation of MAPKs via rapid de-phosphorylation of the MAPKs. We therefore examined the role of MKP-1 in stroke and studied its inhibitory effects on MAPKs after experimental stroke.

methodsMale mice were subjected to transient middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO). MKP-1 knockout (KO) mice and a MKP-1 pharmacological inhibitor were utilized. We utilized flow cytometry, immunohistochemistry (IHC), and Western blots analysis to explore MKP-1 signaling and its effects on apoptosis/inflammation in the brain and specifically in microglia after stroke.

resultsMKP-1 was highly expressed in the nuclei of both neurons and microglia after stroke. MKP-1 genetic deletion exacerbated stroke outcome by increasing infarct, neurological deficits and hemorrhagic transformation. Additionally, delayed treatment of the MKP-1 pharmacological inhibitor worsened stroke outcome in wild type (WT) mice but had no effect in MKP-1 KO mice. Furthermore, MKP-1 deletion led to increased c-jun-N-terminal kinase (JNK) activation and microglial p38 activation after stroke. Finally, MKP-1 deletion or inhibition increased inflammatory and apoptotic response as evidenced by the increased levels of interleukin-6 (IL-6), tumor necrosis factor α (TNFα), ratio of p-c-jun/c-jun and cleaved caspase-3 following ischemia.

conclusionsWe have demonstrated that MKP-1 signaling is an endogenous protective mechanism in stroke. Our data imply that MKP-1 possesses anti-apoptotic and anti-inflammatory properties by simultaneously controlling the activities of JNK and microglial p38.
