Traumatic Brain Injury-Induced Acute Lung Injury: Evidence for Activation and Inhibition of a Neural-Respiratory-Inflammasome Axis.
Article in Journal of neurotrauma, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 78 papers.
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
Approximately 20-25% of traumatic brain injury (TBI) subjects develop acute lung injury (ALI), but the pathomechanisms of TBI-induced ALI remain poorly defined. Our previous work has shown that the inflammasome plays a critical role in TBI-induced secondary pathophysiology and that inflammasome proteins are released in extracellular vesicles (EV) after TBI. Here we investigated whether EV-mediated inflammasome signaling contributed to the etiology of TBI-induced ALI. C57/BL6 male mice were subjected to controlled cortical impact (CCI), and the brains and lungs were examined for inflammasome activation and ALI at 4 and 24 h after TBI. We show that TBI releases EV containing inflammasome proteins into serum that target the lung to cause ALI, supporting activation of a neural-respiratory-inflammasome axis. Administration of a low-molecular-weight heparin (enoxaparin, a blocker of EV uptake) or treatment with a monoclonal antibody against apoptosis speck-like staining protein containing a caspase recruitment domain (anti-ASC) after adoptive transfer of EV isolated from TBI-injured mice significantly inhibited inflammasome activation in the lungs of recipient mice resulting in improved ALI scores.This axis constitutes an important arm of the innate inflammatory response in lung pathology after TBI and targeting this axis represents a novel therapeutic treatment for TBI-induced ALI.
