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

The execution of shock following high dose E. coli lipopolysaccharide (LPS) or bacterial sepsis in mice required pro-apoptotic caspase-8 in addition to pro-pyroptotic caspase-11 and gasdermin D. Hematopoietic cells produced MyD88- and TRIF-dependent inflammatory cytokines sufficient to initiate shock without any contribution from caspase-8 or caspase-11. Both proteases had to be present to support tumor necrosis factor- and interferon-β-dependent tissue injury first observed in the small intestine and later in spleen and thymus. Caspase-11 enhanced the activation of caspase-8 and extrinsic cell death machinery within the lower small intestine. Neither caspase-8 nor caspase-11 was individually sufficient for shock. Both caspases collaborated to amplify inflammatory signals associated with tissue damage. Therefore, combined pyroptotic and apoptotic signaling mediated endotoxemia independently of RIPK1 kinase activity and RIPK3 function. These observations bring to light the relevance of tissue compartmentalization to disease processes in vivo where cytokines act in parallel to execute diverse cell death pathways.
