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

The NOD-like receptor family-pyrin domain containing 3 (NLRP3) inflammasome is an essential factor in enhancing inflammation and autoimmunity. Anesthetic isoflurane (ISO) exerts a novel pharmacological action in anti-inflammation. However, whether ISO hinders the pathogenesis of lupus nephritis (LN) by inhibiting NLRP3 inflammasome activation remains unclear. In this study, 12-week-old MRL/lpr and C57BL/6 mice were treated with and without 1.4% ISO for eight weeks. ISO administration significantly reduced mortality, serum anti-dsDNA level, renal immune complex deposition, and the ratio of Th17 to Treg cells in MRL/lpr mice. ISO treatment remarkably reduced the levels of blood urea nitrogen, proteinuria, interleukin (IL)-17, IL-1β, and tumor necrosis factor-α, as well as the infiltration of macrophages. ISO also abrogated renal NLRP3 inflammasome formation and activation. These results suggest that ISO may be a promising therapeutic agent for LN partly because it restricts NLRP3 inflammasome activation.
