Role of Mitogen-Activated Protein Kinases in the Formation of Hypertrophic Scar with Model of Lipopolysaccharide Stimulated Skin Fibroblast Cells.

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.
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
objectiveHypertrophic scar is common in burn patients, but treating result could not meet the expectation of the patients and doctors. We have found that certain concentration level of lipopolysaccharide (LPS) stimulated normal fibroblast cells have statistically similar with fibroblast cells from hypertrophic scar on the phenotype level, and with this work we are trying to figure out which Mitogen-Activated Protein Kinase (MAPK) is affected and how it is affected.
methodsExperiments were conducted in May, 2017 at the first affiliated hospital of the Chinese PLA General Hospital, Beijing, China. We have cultured the cell line of human skin fibroblast cells and randomly divided cells into four groups: control group and three stimulation groups. We have rebuilt the LPS stimulated model of skin fibroblast cells in hypertrophic scar based on our previous work. Experimental groups were stimulated with 0.1ug/mL LPS concentration for 24 hours, 48 hours, and 72 hours, respectively. Then we performed western blot analysis of Erk, p-Erk, JNK, p-JNK, p38 and p-p38. We performed statistical analysis with SPSS 15.0.
resultsLPS can up regulate the MAPK/p38 pathway (p<0.05) and down regulate the MAPK/Erk and MAPK/JNK pathways (p<0.05). The changes of phosphorylated protein are time-related, with longer stimulation duration, significant difference is increased (p<0.05).
conclusionMAPKs can play an important role in the formation of hypertrophic scar in the skin. Early intervention through the MAPKs could be a promising target in the prevention of the formation of hypertrophic scar.
