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

backgroundThe expression of both high-mobility group box 1 (HMGB1) and receptor for advanced glycation end-products (RAGE) is upregulated in degenerated discs. HMGB1 is known to function as a coupling factor between hypoxia and inflammation in arthritis, and this inflammatory response is modulated by microRNAs (miRNAs), with miR-107 expression downregulated during hypoxia. In this study, we investigated the regulation of the miR-107/HMGB1/RAGE pathway in degenerated nucleus pulposus cells (NPCs) after hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) treatment.

methodsNPCs were separated from human degenerated intervertebral disc tissues. The control cells were maintained in 5% CO

resultsUsing microarray analyses, 96 miRNAs were identified as upregulated and 66 downregulated following HBO treatment. Based on these results, miR-107 was selected for further investigation. Bioinformatics analyses indicated that the 3' untranslated region of the HMGB1 mRNA contained the "seed-matched-sequence" for hsa-miR-107, which was validated via dual-luciferase reporter assays. MiR-107 was markedly induced by HBO, and simultaneous suppression of HMGB1 was observed in NPCs. Knockdown of miR-107 resulted in upregulation of HMGB1 expression in HBO-treated cells, and HBO treatment downregulated the mRNA and protein levels of HMGB1, RAGE, and iNOS and the secretion of HMGB1. In addition, HBO treatment upregulated the protein levels of cytosolic IκBα and decreased the nuclear translocation of NF-κB in NPCs. Moreover, HBO treatment downregulated the phosphorylation of p38MAPK, ERK, and JNK and significantly decreased the secretion of MMP-3, MMP-9, and MMP-13.

conclusionsHBO inhibits pathways related to HMGB1/RAGE signaling via upregulation of miR-107 expression in degenerated human NPCs.
