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

Prostaglandin (PG) endoperoxide H synthase (PGHS)-2, also known as cyclooxygenase (COX)-2, can convert arachidonic acid (AA) to PGH2 in the committed step of PG synthesis. PGHS-2 functions as a conformational heterodimer composed of an allosteric (Eallo) and a catalytic (Ecat) monomer. Here we investigated the interplay between human (hu)PGHS-2 and an alternative COX substrate, the endocannabinoid, 2-arachidonoylglycerol (2-AG), as well as a stable analog, 2-O-arachidonylglycerol ether (2-AG ether). We also compared the inhibition of huPGHS-2-mediated oxygenation of AA, 2-AG, and 2-AG ether by the well-known COX inhibitor, ibuprofen. When tested with huPGHS-2, 2-AG and 2-AG ether exhibit very similar kinetic parameters, responses to stimulation by FAs that are not COX substrates, and modes of inhibition by ibuprofen. The 2-AG ether binds Ecat more tightly than Eallo and, thus, can be used as a stable Ecat-specific substrate to examine certain Eallo-dependent responses. Ibuprofen binding to Eallo of huPGHS-2 completely blocks 2-AG or 2-AG ether oxygenation; however, inhibition by ibuprofen of huPGHS-2-mediated oxygenation of AA engages a combination of both allosteric and competitive mechanisms.
