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 excessive activation of interferon regulatory factor 7 (IRF7) promotes the development of acute lung injury (ALI) caused by influenza A virus (IAV). However, the deficiency of IRF7 increases the susceptibility to deadly IAV infection in both humans and mice. To test whether the attenuation rather than the abolishment of IRF7 activity in local infectious sites could alleviate IAV-induced ALI, we established IAV-infected mouse model and trachea/lung-tissue culture systems, and designed two IRF7-interfering oligodeoxynucleotides, IRF7-rODN M1 and IRF7-rODN A1, based on the mouse and human consensus sequences of IRF7-binding sites of Ifna/IFNA genes, respectively. In the model mice, we found a close relationship between the IAV-induced ALI and the level/activity of IRF7 in local infectious sites, and also found that the reduced IRF7 level or activity in the lungs of mice treated with IRF7-rODN M1 led to decreased mRNA levels of Ifna genes, reduced neutrophil infiltration in the lungs and prolonged survival of mice. Furthermore, we found that the effects of IRF7-rODN M1 on alleviating IAV-induced ALI could be correlated to the reduced translocation of IRF7, caused by the IRF7-rODN M1, from cytosol to nucleus in IAV-infected cells. These data suggest that the proper attenuation of IRF7 activity in local infectious sites could be a novel approach for treating IAV-induced ALI.
