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

objectivesWe herein aimed to explore whether growth arrest-specific 5 (GAS5) promotes M1 macrophage polarization in childhood pneumonia and to investigate the underlying mechanism.

methodsRelative GAS5 and miR-455-5p expression and suppressor of cytokine signaling 3 (SOCS3) messenger RNA level were examined using quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction. Protein expression of SOCS3 and the Janus kinase 2/signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (JAK2/STAT3) pathway-related proteins was detected using western blot analysis. Luciferase activity assay was performed to test whether miR-455-5p could bind to GAS5 or SOCS3. The macrophage phenotype was determined using flow cytometry analysis and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay.

resultsThe macrophage polarization toward the M2 phenotype was observed in peripheral blood from pneumonia children. Furthermore, GAS5 and SOCS3 expression were upregulated but miR-455-5p downregulated in human monocyte-derived macrophages from pneumonia children compared with the control group. Furthermore, GAS5 acted as a sponge for miR-455-5p to facilitate SOCS3 expression. Moreover, miR-455-5p mimic and SOCS3 knockdown significantly reversed the GAS5 overexpression-mediated suppression of the JAK2/STAT3 signaling and promotion of M1 polarization.

conclusionGAS5 promotes M1 macrophage polarization by acting as a competing endogenous RNA of miR-455-5p to facilitate SOCS3 expression in childhood pneumonia.
