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

TLRs are critical for innate immunity, but excessive activation can lead to tissue damage and disease. Specialized proresolving mediators (SPMs), including resolvin D2 (RvD2), promote the active resolution of inflammation. How SPMs regulate early LPS signaling, including activation of TLR4, is unknown. We treated human THP-1 monocytic cells and primary human blood monocytes with RvD2 and LPS to evaluate modulation of TLRs. miRNA-146a overexpression and inhibition were used to dissect the mechanism of RvD2-mediated actions. We validated our studies using ELISAs for cytokines, PCR, Western blot analysis, and flow cytometry. Cells treated with 0.1% ethanol (control for RvD2) and/or PBS (control for LPS), and control microRNA mimics and inhibitors were used as controls. RvD2 reduced LPS-induced cytokines and TLR4 expression in human monocytes by up to 75%. In THP-1 cells, RvD2 reduced expression of TLR4, lymphocyte antigen 96 (MD-2), and downstream signals (MyD88, TRIF, and TAK1). These effects were partially mediated through RvD2 induction of microRNA-146a, and RvD2's actions were blocked by microRNA-146a inhibition. These new findings reveal the ability of RvD2 to reduce TLR4 expression and attenuate LPS-induced inflammation, providing a new area of SPM activity to investigate in this major area of therapeutic research.-Croasdell, A., Sime, P.
