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

backgroundNuciferine, a major bioactive component from the lotus leaf, has been reported to have notable anti-inflammatory activities such as renal inflammation and acute lung injury in previous studies. Mastitis is one of the most prevalent diseases in the dairy cattle, which causes large economic losses for the dairy industry. However, the effects of nuciferine on lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced mastitis have not been reported. METHODS AND

resultsHere, we investigated the anti-inflammatory effects of nuciferine on LPS-induced mastitis in mice and illuminated its potential mechanism on the TLR4-mediated signaling pathway in mouse mammary epithelial cells (mMECs). Histopathological changes and myeloperoxidase (MPO) activity assay showed that nuciferine treatment significantly alleviated the LPS-induced injury of mammary gland flocculus, inflammatory cells infiltration. qPCR and ELISA assays indicated that nuciferine dose-dependently reduced the levels of TNF-α and IL-1β, which indicated that nuciferine might have therapeutic effects on mastitis. Furthermore, nuciferine treatment significantly decreased the expression of TLR4 in a dose-dependent manner. Besides, nuciferine was also found to suppress LPS-induced NF-κB activation.

conclusionThese findings indicate that nuciferine potently ameliorates LPS-induced mastitis by inhibition of the TLR4-NF-κB signaling pathway.
