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

Cyclooxygenases (COXs) and their prostanoid products play important roles in a diverse range of physiological processes, including in the immune system. Here, we provide evidence that COX-1 is an essential regulator in early stages of B-cell development. COX-1-deficient mice displayed systematic reduction in total B cells, which was attributed to the arrest of early B-cell development from pro-B to pre-B stage. We further demonstrated that this defect was mediated through downregulation of the Janus kinase/signal transducer and activator of transcription 5 (JAK/STAT5) signaling and its target genes, including Pax5, in COX-1(-/-) mice. Mechanistic studies revealed that COX-1-derived thromboxane A2 (TxA2) could regulate JAK3/STAT5 signaling through the cyclic adenosine monophosphate-protein kinase A pathway, via binding with its receptor thromboxane A2 receptor (TP). Administration of the TP agonist could rescue the defective B-cell development and JAK/STAT5 signaling activity in COX-1-deficient mice. Moreover, administration of low-dose aspirin caused a significant reduction in total B cells in peripheral blood of healthy human volunteers, coincidentally with reduced TxA2 production and downregulation of JAK/STAT5 signaling. Taken together, our results demonstrate that COX-1-derived TxA2 plays a critical role in the stage transition of early B-cell development through regulation of JAK/STAT5 signaling and indicate a potential immune-suppressive effect of low-dose aspirin in humans.
