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

To study the effect of EGFR activation on the generation of TNF-α and the occurrence of cardiac dysfuncetion during sepsis, PD168393 and erlotinib (both are EGFR inhibitors) were applied to decreased the production of TNF-α and phosphrylation of ERK1/2 and p38 induced by LPS in cardiomyocytes. These results were further proved by specifically knocked down the expression of EGFR in vitro. Both TAPI-1, a TNF-α converting enzyme (TACE) inhibitor, and TGF-α neutralizing antibody could inhibit the activation of EGFR and the generation of TNF-α mRNA after LPS treatment. The increase of TGF-α in response to LPS could also be suppressed by TAPI-1. On the other hand, exogenous TGF-α increased the expression of TNF-α mRNA and partially reversed the inhibitory effect of TAPI-1 on expression of TNF-α mRNA in response to LPS indicating that the transactivation of EGFR by LPS in cardiomyocytes needs the help of TACE and TGF-α. In endotoxemic mice, inhibition the activation of EGFR not only decreased TNF-α production in the myocardium but also improved left ventricular pump function and ameliorated cardiac dysfunction and ultimately improved survival rate. All these results provided a new insight of how EGFR regulation the production of TNF-α in cardiomyocytes and a potential new target for the treatment of cardiac dysfunction in sepsis.
