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

Interleukin (IL)-30, the IL-27p28 subunit of the heterodimeric cytokine IL-27, acts as an antagonist of IL-27 and IL-6 signaling in murine cells via glycoprotein 130 (gp130) receptor and additional binding partners. Thus far, functions of IL-30 have not been fully elucidated in human cells. We demonstrate that like IL-27, IL-30 upregulated TLR4 expression to enhance lipopolysaccharide-induced TNF-α production in human monocytes; however, these IL-30-mediated activities did not reach the same levels of cytokine induction compared to IL-27. Interestingly, IL-30- and IL-27-mediated interferon-γ-induced protein 10 (IP-10) production required WSX-1 engagement and signal transducer and activator of transcription (STAT) 3 phosphorylation; furthermore, IL-30 induced STAT phosphorylation after 16 h, whereas IL-27 induced STAT phosphorylation within 30 min. This prompted us to examine if a secondary mediator was required for IL-30-induced pro-inflammatory functions, and hence we examined IL-6-related molecules. Combined with inhibition of soluble IL-6 receptor α (sIL-6Rα) and data showing that IL-6 inhibited IL-30/IL-27-induced IP-10 expression, we demonstrate a role for sIL-6Rα and gp130 in IL-30-mediated activity in human cells.
