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

The anti-inflammatory effect of sodium houttuyfonate (SH), an herbal-originated drug that used in China clinically, was investigated on chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) inflammatory model rats induced by combination usage of cigarette smoke (CS) and lipopolysaccharide (LPS). The morphology of the lung tissue, the expression levels of cytokines in the bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF), the protein levels of TLR4, NF-κB p65, and SIGIRR, and the mRNA levels of TLR4, MyD88, NF-κB p65, and SIGIRR in lung tissues were investigated, respectively. After treated by SH (24.3 mg/kg), the abnormal morphology changes of lung tissues in COPD rats, such as neutrophil infiltration and airway obstruction, were considerably alleviated, as well as both proinflammatory cytokines, TNF-α and IL-1β, significantly decreased in BALF. The mRNA level of TLR4, MyD88, and NF-κB p65 and protein expression of TLR4 and NF-κB p65 in lung tissues decreased significantly after SH treatment, while both SIGIRR mRNA and protein levels increased significantly. These results suggest that SH markedly attenuated the pulmonary inflammation induced by CS and LPS and protected the lung tissue in COPD model rat. The anti-inflammatory effects were related to suppress the TLR4/NF-κB pathway dependent on MyD88. TIR8/SIGIRR might contribute to the protective effects of SH on pulmonary inflammation.
