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

Treatment with dexamethasone in human osteoblasts leads to oxidative stress and cell injures. NF-E2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) is a key anti-oxidant signaling. We want to induce Nrf2 activation via microRNA-mediated silencing its suppressor Keap1. Our results show that microRNA-200a ("miR-200a") expression depleted Keap1, causing Nrf2 protein stabilization in OB-6 osteoblastic cells. Reversely, the miR-200a anti-sense led to Keap1 upregulation and Nrf2 degradation. miR-200a expression activated Nrf2 signaling, which inhibited dexamethasone-induced reactive oxygen species production and OB-6 cell death/apoptosis. Keap1 shRNA also activated Nrf2 and protected OB-6 cells from dexamethasone. Importantly, miR-200a was in-effective in Keap1-silenced (by shRNA) OB-6 cells. In the primary human osteoblasts, Keap1 silence by targeted-shRNA or miR-200a protected cells from dexamethasone. Significantly, miR-200a level was decreased in necrotic femoral head tissues, which was correlated with Keap1 mRNA upregulation. Together, miR-200a expression activates Nrf2 signaling and protects human osteoblasts from dexamethasone.
