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

Inflammation and inflammatory cytokines have been reported to play vital roles in the development of osteoarthritis (OA). Plumbagin, a quinonoid compound extracted from the roots of medicinal herbs of the Plumbago genus, has been reported to have anti-inflammatory effects. However, the anti-inflammatory effects of plumbagin on OA have not been reported. This study aimed to assess the effects of plumbagin on human OA chondrocytes and in a mouse model of OA induced by destabilization of the medial meniscus (DMM). In vitro, human OA chondrocytes were pretreated with plumbagin (2, 5, 10 μM) for 2 h and subsequently stimulated with IL-1β for 24 h. Production of NO, PGE2, MMP-1, MMP-3, and MMP-13 was evaluated by the Griess reagent and ELISAs. The messenger RNA (mRNA) expression of COX-2, iNOS, MMP-1, MMP-3, MMP-13, aggrecan, and collagen-II was measured by real-time PCR. The protein expression of COX-2, iNOS, p65, p-p65, IκBα, and p-IκBα was detected by Western blot. The protein expression of collagen-II was evaluated by immunofluorescence. In vivo, the severity of OA was determined by histological analysis. We found that plumbagin significantly inhibited the IL-1β-induced production of NO and PGE2; expression of COX-2, iNOS, MMP-1, MMP-3, and MMP-13; and degradation of aggrecan and collagen-II. Furthermore, plumbagin dramatically suppressed IL-1β-stimulated NF-κB activation. In vivo, treatment of plumbagin not only prevented the destruction of cartilage and the thickening of subchondral bone but also relieved synovitis in mice OA models. Taken together, these results suggest that plumbagin may be a potential agent in the treatment of OA.
