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

backgroundHistamine releasing factor (HRF) is a unique cytokine known to regulate a variety of immune cells in late allergic reactions. In the previous study, we revealed that the biologically active form of HRF is the dimerized translationally controlled tumor protein (dTCTP) for the first time, and confirmed the secretion of IL-8 cytokine by dTCTP in human bronchial epithelial cells. However, the signaling pathway by which dTCTP promotes the secretion of IL-8 is not known.

resultsWhen the cells were stimulated with dTCTP, the canonical NF-κB pathway and ERK, JNK and p38 MAPK become activated. dTCTP promoted transcription of IL-8, which involved NF-κB and AP-1 transcription factors. NF-κB was found to be essential for the transcriptional activation of IL-8, while AP-1 was partially responsible for the transcriptional activation by dTCTP. p38 MAPK was found to be involved in post-transcriptional regulation of dTCTP by stabilizing IL-8 mRNA.

conclusionsThis study demonstrated that dTCTP induces IL-8 secretion in BEAS-2B cells through transcriptional and post-transcriptional regulation of MAPK and NF-κB pathways. This study provides insight into the mechanism by which dTCTP induces inflammation.
