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 benzylideneacetophenone derivative JC3 [(2E)-3-(4-hydroxy-3-methoxyphenyl)phenylpro-2-en-l-one] (JC3) was synthesized by modifying yakuchinone B obtained from the seeds of Alpinia oxyphylla, a member of the ginger family (Zingiberaceae), which are widely used as a folk remedy and as an anti-inflammatory. The aim of this study was to investigate the anti-arthritic effects of JC3 in rat models of carrageenan-induced paw pain and carrageenan/kaolin-induced knee arthritis. The anti-nociceptive effect of JC3 was assessed by measuring paw withdrawal pressure thresholds using an analgesy-meter. Arthritic symptoms in our monoarthritic rat model were evaluated using weight distribution ratios (WDR), paw thicknesses, and serum prostaglandin E2 (PGE2), tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α, interleukin (IL)-6, and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) levels (determined by ELISA). Histological analyses of knee joints were performed after injecting JC3 intraperitoneally into rats before carrageenan treatment at 5 or 10 mg/kg/day for 6 days. The anti-inflammatory effects of JC3 were investigated in vitro using interleukin-1beta (IL-1β)-stimulated fibroblast-like synoviocytes (FLS) derived from arthritis patients. PGE2, IL-6, and IL-8 levels were measured after treating FLS with JC3. In arthritis-induced rats, JC3 treatment significantly decreased nociceptive and arthritic symptoms at days 5 to 6 after carrageenan/kaolin injection. Histological staining of knee tissue showed that JC3 significantly reduced inflammatory areas in the knee joints. Furthermore, JC3 inhibited the expressions of IL-6 and IL-8 in FLS cells at concentrations of 5-10 μg/ml and decreased PGE
