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

objectivesIn our research, we aimed to investigate the roles of CC-chemokine receptor 7 (CCR7) and relevant signaling pathways in Leishmania major-infected human dendritic cells (DCs).

methodsDifferentially expressed genes (DEGs) in L. major-infected human DCs were selected out and visualized using R program. Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes pathway analysis was conducted for investigation of significantly enriched signaling pathways and Gene Ontology enrichment analysis was carried out for the unveiling of enriched Molecular Functions and Biological Processes in L. major-infected human DCs. Besides, Hub gene was screened out using weighted gene coexpression network analysis and Cytoscape. In addition, enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay and real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction were used for detection of relative expression of CCR7, interleukin-12 (IL-12), and interferon-γ (IFN-γ) in L. major-infected human DCs and western blot analysis was used for detection of relative expression of CCR7 and other proteins in JAK-STAT signaling pathway in L. major-infected human DCs.

resultsCCR7 was upregulated and both chemokine and JAK-STAT signaling pathway were activated in L. major-infected human DCs. During the L. major infection, total number of L. major-infected human DCs were increased, as well as the relative expression levels of CCR7, IL-12, and IFN-γ and proteins in the JAK-STAT signaling pathway. Overexpression of CCR7 not only increased expression levels of IL-12 and IFN-γ but also activated the JAK-STAT signaling pathway to affect the leishmaniasis progression.

conclusionL. major infection-induced activation of CCR7, as well as JAK2 and STAT1, might well upregulate the expression of BAX yet suppress the expression of both Bcl2 and c-Jun to affect leishmaniasis progression.
