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

Licochalcone A (Lico A), a flavonoid found in licorice root (Glycyrrhiza glabra), has been reported to have anti-inflammatory activity. In this study, we evaluated the anti-inflammatory effects of Lico A on IL-1β-stimulated human osteoarthritis chondrocytes and investigated the possible mechanism. Results demonstrated that Lico A treatment significantly inhibited PGE2 and NO production induced by IL-1β. IL-1β-induced iNOS and COX-2 expression were also inhibited by Lico A. Lico A inhibited MMP1, MMP3, and MMP13 production in IL-1β-stimulated chondrocytes. Lico A also inhibited IL-1β-induced phosphorylation of NF-κB p65 and IκBα. Meanwhile, Lico A was found to upregulate the expression of Nrf2 and HO-1. However, Nrf2 siRNA reversed the anti-inflammatory effects of Lico A. In conclusion, our results suggested that Lico A showed anti-inflammatory effects in IL-1β-stimulated chondrocytes by activating Nrf2 signaling pathway.
