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

Phospholipase Cε (PLCε) is a multifunctional enzyme implicated in inflammatory functions. There are limited data, however, on how PLCε can alter inflammatory cytokine by affecting downstream pathways. Recent studies suggest that inflammation is likely to have an important role in transitional cell carcinoma of bladder (TCCB) and cancer disease progression. Here, we showed that PLCε and p-STAT3 expression were both elevated in TCCB tissues compared to adjacent tissues, and the increase of PLCε level was associated with the increase of p-STAT3 level. Then, knockdown of PLCε using adenovirus-shPLCε significantly decreased inflammatory cytokine (IL-6, TNF-α, IL-1β) expression and inflammation-associated gene (TLR4, MyD88, p-STAT3) expression. Furthermore, we demonstrated that PLCε knockdown blocked LPS-induced inflammatory cytokine and p-STAT3 expression. Additionally, we found that combined treatment of STAT3 inhibitor S3I-201 with adenovirus-shPLCε exhibited synergistic inhibitory effects on expression of p-STAT3. Our results suggested that STAT3 phosphorylation is involved in PLCε-mediated inflammatory cytokine release. Our research is of potential importance in drug development programs using PLCε as a therapeutic target for TCCB.
