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

A complex of curcumin and lecithin developed to improve the solubility of curcumin, enhanced its chondroprotective effect via an anti-inflammatory mechanism. In macrophage, proinflammatory cytokines, such as tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α, interleukin (IL)-1β, IL-6, prostaglandin E2 (PGE2), and nitric oxide (NO) were quantified. In addition, the activity of nuclear factor (NF)-κB was examined. With chondrocytes, inflammatory mediators were assessed by measuring the secretion levels of IL-6, IL-8, and PGE2, also the mRNA expression of cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) and inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS). Metalloproteinases (MMPs), tissue inhibitor of metalloprotease (TIMP)-1, type II collagen (COL2), proteoglycan (PG), and hyaluronic acid (HA) were measured with respect to the articulation surface. The complex promoted the anti-inflammatory effect by the inhibition of inflammatory mediators. In addition, mRNA expression levels ameliorated. Furthermore, it was effective in decreasing extracellular secretion of polypeptides, also corresponding intracellular MMPs and TIMP-1. In conclusion, the complex may be developed as a functional supplement to maintain articulation health.
