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

Acute gouty arthritis is the inflammation of joint tissues in the acute form due to the deposition of monosodium urate (MSU) crystals. Regulatory T cells (Tregs) and Th17 cells play an important role in the development and progression of inflammatory diseases. However, the expression and role of Tregs and Th17 cells are not clear in this disease. Here, we investigated the changes of Tregs, Th17 cells, and Treg/Th17 ratio in spleen, as well as the inflammatory cytokines in blood and joint tissue pathology in acute gouty arthritis rat induced by MSU. We found that both the percentages of Tregs and Th17 cells in spleen increased at an early stage (6 h). Tregs decreased at 12 and 24 h, and rise again at 48 and 72 h. However, Th17 cells reached its peak at 24 h, and then decreased after 48 h. Treg/Th17 ratio showed an initial decrease and then increase, and further reached its minimum value at 24 h. But the ratios of Treg/Th17at all times were lower than that of normal control. The level of serum cytokines (IL-1β, IL-6, IL-17, TNF-α, and IL-10) showed an opposite trend to Treg/Th17 ratio, except the level of TGF-β
