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

Sulfate-modifying factor 2 (SUMF2), a member of the formylglycine-generating enzyme family, was earlier found to play a role in the regulation of interleukin (IL)-13 expression and secretion in airway smooth muscle cells. IL-13 is a T helper 2 cytokine that plays important roles in the pathogenesis of asthma. However, there is little evidence of the potential role of SUMF2 in the cellular inflammatory responses in asthma. Here, using an ovalbumin-induced asthma rat model, we show that SUMF2 gene expression is significantly decreased in allergic asthma rats. Moreover, several pathological changes were observed in the lung tissue and IL-13 was found to be overexpressed in the ovalbumin-induced asthma model. Additional studies on the lung bronchial epithelial tissues, peripheral blood lymphocytes and bronchoalveolar lavage fluid of the OVA-induced asthma rats showed that SUMF2 mRNA and protein expression were attenuated. However, there was only a little significant correlation was found between SUMF2 and IL-13 expression. These results indicate that SUMF2 may mediate airway inflammation in allergic asthma by modulating the expression of IL-13. More data from in vivo experiments are needed to clearly understand the role of SUMF2 in asthma.
