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

Ilex Rotunda Thunb has been shown to have anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects. In human keratinocytes, we investigated the effect of rotundarpene (4-caffeoyl-3-methyl-but-2-ene-1,4-diol) on the TNF-α-stimulated production of inflammatory mediators in relation to the Akt, mTOR, and NF-κB pathways, and the JNK and p38-MAPK. Rotundarpene, Akt inhibitor, Bay 11-7085, rapamycin, and N-acetylcysteine inhibited the TNF-α-stimulated production of cytokines and chemokines, increase in the levels of p-Akt and mTOR, activation of NF-κB, and production of reactive oxygen species in keratinocytes. TNF-α treatment induced phosphorylation of the JNK and p38-MAPK. Inhibitors of the c-JNK (SP600125) and p38-MAPK (SB203580) reduced the TNF-α-induced production of inflammatory mediators, binding of NF-κB to DNA, and activation of the JNK and p38-MAPK in keratinocytes. The results show that rotundarpene may reduce the TNF-α-stimulated inflammatory mediator production by suppressing the reactive oxygen species-dependent activation of the Akt, mTOR, and NF-κB pathways, and activation of the JNK and p38-MAPK in human keratinocytes. Additionally, rotundarpene appears to attenuate the Akt, mTOR, and NF-κB pathways and the JNK and p38-MAPK-mediated inflammatory skin diseases.
