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

aimTo study the inhibition of nuclear factor kappa-B p65 (NF-κB p65) antisense oligodeoxynucleotide (ASODN) on transdifferentiation of normal human lens epithelial cells induced by transforming growth factor-β2 (TGF-β2) in vitro.

methodsNF-κB p65 ASODN and NF-κB p65 missense oligodeoxynucleotide (MSODN) were designed and synthesized. Human lens epithelial cell line (HLE B-3) cells were prepared for study and divided into 7 groups. Control group was HLE B-3 cells cultured in vitro in dulbecco's modified eagle medium (DMEM). T1, T2, and T3 group were HLE B-3 cells cultured in vitro in DMEM with 10 ng/mL TGF-β2 for 6h, 12h, 24h respectively. A+T group was HLE B-3 cells cultured with 10 ng/mL TGF-β2 for 24h after transfected by NF-κB p65 ASODN for 24h. M+T group was HLE B-3 cells cultured with 10 ng/mL TGF-β2 for 24h after transfected by NF-κB p65 MSODN for 24h. The negative control group was HLE B-3 cells cultured with 10 ng/mL TGF-β2 for 24h after cultured with transfer agent (HiPerFect) for 24h. Cell morphology was observed at different time points using an inverted microscope. The expression of NF-κB p65 mRNA was detected with reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR), and the expression of α-smooth muscle actin (α-SMA) protein was assayed with ELISA.

resultsWith the TGF-β2 stimulation prolongation, the expression of NF-κB p65 mRNA and α-SMA protein increased in T1, T2, T3 groups compared with the control group, and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). NF-κB p65 ASODN lowered the expression of NF-κB p65 mRNA and α-SMA protein induced by TGF-β2. NF-κB p65 MSODN and HiPerFect did not lower the expression of NF-κB p65 mRNA and α-SMA protein induced by TGF-β2. The difference between control group and A+T group was not statistically significant (P>0.05), but the difference among A+T group and other groups was statistically significant (P<0.05).

conclusionNF-κB p65 ASODN could lower the expression of NF-κB p65 mRNA and α-SMA protein induced by TGF-β2, and antagonized TGF-β2-induced transdifferentiation of HLE B-3 in vitro. NF-κB p65 ASODN could be used as a new biological therapeutic target of posterior capsular opacification.
