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 reflux of pancreatic-duodenal fluids is implicated in the pathophysiology of proton-pump inhibitor-resistant gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD). Protease-activated receptor-2 (PAR-2) is activated by proteases, the pancreatic enzyme, trypsin, and the activated PAR-2 enhances transient receptor potential vanilloid 4 (TRPV4) function in neurons. TRPV4 stimulates ATP exocytosis in conjunction with the vesicular nucleotide transporter, which mediates mechano-transduction and vagal stimulation. The aim of the present study was to verify whether the activated PAR-2 up-regulates TRPV4 function in mouse esophageal keratinocytes, which may link to the pathophysiology in PPI-resistant GERD.

methodsTRPV4 and PAR-2 expressions were detected by RT-PCR, immunostaining, and western blotting in mouse esophageal keratinocytes. The functional response of TRPV4 to esophageal keratinocytes was analyzed using a Ca(2+) imaging system. Cellular ATP release was examined by luciferase-luciferin reaction. TRPV4 phosphorylation was studied by immunoprecipitation and western blotting.

resultsPAR-2 and TRPV4 mRNAs and proteins were expressed in esophageal keratinocytes. Pre-treatment with trypsin significantly increased the responses to TRPV4 activator in esophageal keratinocytes, probably via the phosphorylation of serine residue of TRPV4 by protein kinase C and resulted in cellular ATP release from the cells.

conclusionsActivated PAR-2 with trypsin exposure up-regulated TRPV4 function and increased ATP release in mouse esophageal keratinocytes. This mechanism might be related to the pathophysiology of GERD, especially non-erosive GERD.
