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

Activation of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma (PPARγ) in the cerebrovascular endothelium is a key suppressor of post-stroke brain damage. However, the role of PPARγ's co-regulators during cerebral ischemia remains largely unknown. Here, we show that the transcription factor IRF6 is a novel PPARγ co-regulator that directly binds to and suppresses PPARγ activity in murine cerebrovascular endothelial cells. Moreover, IRF6 was also revealed to be a transcriptional target of PPARγ suppression, with PPARγ silencing significantly promoting IRF6 expression in cerebrovascular endothelial cells. In addition, IRF6 silencing significantly promoted pioglitazone's cytoprotective effects in ischemic murine cerebrovascular endothelial cells. Mechanistically, IRF6 significantly suppressed PPARγ's transcriptional inhibition of the ischemia-induced, pro-apoptotic microRNA miR-106a. In conclusion, we identified IRF6 as a novel PPARγ co-suppressor that serves a key role in suppressing PPARγ-mediated cerebrovascular endothelial cytoprotection following ischemia. Further investigation into IRF6 and other PPARγ co-regulators should provide additional insights into PPARγ's cytoprotective role in the cerebrovascular endothelium following stroke.
