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

background and purposeChronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a corticosteroid-resistant airway inflammatory condition. Resveratrol exhibits anti-inflammatory activities in COPD but has weak potency and poor pharmacokinetics. This study aimed to evaluate the potential of isorhapontigenin, another dietary polyphenol, as a novel anti-inflammatory agent for COPD by examining its effects in vitro and pharmacokinetics in vivo. EXPERIMENTAL APPROACH: Primary human airway epithelial cells derived from healthy and COPD subjects, and A549 epithelial cells were incubated with isorhapontigenin or resveratrol and stimulated with IL-1β in the presence or absence of cigarette smoke extract. Effects of isorhapontigenin and resveratrol on the release of IL-6 and chemokine (C-X-C motif) ligand 8 (CXCL8), and the activation of NF-κB, activator protein-1 (AP-1), MAPKs and PI3K/Akt/FoxO3A pathways were determined and compared with those of dexamethasone. The pharmacokinetic profiles of isorhapontigenin, after i.v. or oral administration, were assessed in Sprague-Dawley rats. KEY

resultsIsorhapontigenin concentration-dependently inhibited IL-6 and CXCL8 release, with IC CONCLUSIONS AND IMPLICATIONS: Isorhapontigenin, an orally bioavailable dietary polyphenol, displayed superior anti-inflammatory effects compared with resveratrol. Furthermore, it suppressed the PI3K/Akt pathway that is insensitive to corticosteroids. These favourable efficacy and pharmacokinetic properties support its further development as a novel anti-inflammatory agent for COPD.
