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

backgroundThe onset of acute pancreatitis (AP) is characterized by early protease activation followed by inflammation and organ damage, but the mechanisms are poorly understood.

aimsWe hypothesized that histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibition might exert protective effects on AP and investigated the role of HDAC in trypsin activation, inflammation, and tissue damage in severe AP.

methodsMale C57Bl/6 mice were treated i.p. with the HDAC inhibitor trichostatin A (2 mg/kg) prior to retrograde infusion of taurocholic acid (5 %) into the pancreatic duct. Serum levels of amylase and interleukin (IL)-6, pancreatic levels of macrophage inflammatory protein-2 (MIP-2) as well as tissue morphology and myeloperoxidase activity in the pancreas and lung were determined 24 h after taurocholate challenge. Trypsin activation was analyzed in isolated acinar cells. Quantitative RT-PCR was used to examine the expression of pro-inflammatory mediators in the pancreas.

resultsPretreatment with trichostatin A decreased amylase levels by 70 % and protected against tissue injury in the pancreas. Moreover, HDAC inhibition reduced systemic IL-6 by more than 95 % and pulmonary myeloperoxidase activity by 75 %. Notably, inhibition of HDAC abolished taurocholate-induced gene expression of cyclooxygenase-2, MIP-2, monocyte chemotactic protein-1, IL-6, and IL-1β in the pancreas. In addition, HDAC inhibition reduced cerulein-induced trypsinogen activation in isolated acinar cells.

conclusionOur findings show that HDAC regulates trypsin activation, inflammation, and tissue damage in AP. Thus, targeting HDAC could serve as novel therapeutic approach in the management of severe AP.
