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

Site-2 protease (S2P) is a membrane-embedded protease that site-specifically cleaves intramembrane transcription factors, a necessary step for their maturation. S2P is well known to regulate cholesterol biosynthesis and endoplasmic reticulum stress in mammalian cells. In this study, we hypothesized that S2P could be responsible for the regulation of cellular oxidative injury under oxidative stress. Wild type Chinese hamster ovary (WT CHO) cells and their mutant M19 cells with defective S2P gene were exposed to different oxidative stress conditions. Results showed that oxidative stress significantly up-regulated S2P expression in WT CHO cells. Notably, M19 cells had remarkably higher level of superoxide and elevated rates of cell death than WT CHO cells. The vulnerability to oxidative stress was reversed by the transfection of S2P gene but not rescued by exogenous supplement of cholesterol, oleate, and mevalonate, indicating that lack of S2P gene leads cells to be more vulnerable to oxidative stress. Furthermore, compared with WT CHO cells, M19 cells had higher nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADPH) oxidase activity and lower paraoxonase-2 expression. Taken together, these results suggest that S2P can be a protease responding to oxidative stress and has the function of regulating cellular oxidative injury.
