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

Immune cells and inflammatory mediators play important roles in the development of atherosclerotic vascular inflammation. IL-27 is a member of the IL-6/IL-12 family that can promote Th1 responses and augment the release of inflammatory mediators from human mast cells and monocytes. However, the direct effect of IL-27 on human coronary artery endothelial cells was unclear. In this study, the effects of IL-27 and TNF-α on the cell surface expression of adhesion molecules, inflammatory cytokines, and chemokines were investigated. Results showed that IL-27 alone could significantly promote the release of chemokine CXCL10. However, IL-27 could further significantly enhance the TNF-α-mediated upregulation of adhesion molecules ICAM-1 and VCAM-1, inflammatory cytokine IL-6, as well as chemokines CCL5 and CXCL10 from human coronary artery endothelial cells. The release of IL-6, CCL5, and CXCL10 were significantly suppressed by specific signaling molecule inhibitors, implying that the induction of these mediators from the human coronary artery endothelial cells could be differentially regulated by the c-Jun N-terminal kinase, p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase, and nuclear factor-κB pathways. These results provided new insights into the effect of IL-27 on the TNF-α mediated activation of human coronary artery endothelial cells in atherosclerotic vascular inflammation.
