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

ANCA-activated phagocytes cause vasculitis and necrotizing crescentic GN (NCGN). ANCA-induced phagocyte NADPH oxidase (Phox) may contribute by generating tissue-damaging reactive oxygen species. We tested an alternative hypothesis, in which Phox restrains inflammation by downregulating caspase-1, thereby reducing IL-1β generation and limiting NCGN. In an antimyeloperoxidase (anti-MPO) antibody-mediated disease model, mice transplanted with either gp91(phox)-deficient or p47(phox)-deficient bone marrow showed accelerated disease with increased crescents, necrosis, glomerular monocytes, and renal IL-1β levels compared with mice transplanted with wild-type bone marrow. IL-1β receptor blockade abrogated aggravated NCGN in gp91(phox)-deficient mice. In vitro, challenge with anti-MPO antibody strongly enhanced caspase-1 activity and IL-1β generation in gp91(phox)-deficient and p47(phox)-deficient monocytes compared with wild-type monocytes. This enhanced IL-1β generation was abrogated when caspase-1 was blocked. ANCA-induced superoxide and IL-1β generation were inversely related in human monocytes. Furthermore, transplantation of gp91(phox)/caspase-1 double-deficient bone marrow rescued the accelerated NCGN phenotype in gp91(phox) bone marrow-deficient mice. These results suggest that Phox-generated reactive oxygen species downregulate caspase-1, thereby keeping the inflammasome in check and limiting ANCA-induced inflammation. IL-1 receptor blockade may provide a promising strategy in NCGN, whereas our data question the benefit of antioxidants.
