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

We have previously reported that long-term treatment of beta cells with interleukin-6 (IL-6) is pro-apoptotic. However, little is known about the regulatory mechanisms that are involved. Therefore, we investigated pro-apoptotic changes in mRNA expression in beta cells in response to IL-6 treatment. We analyzed a microarray with RNA from INS-1 beta cells treated with IL-6, and found that TNF-α mRNA was significantly upregulated. Inhibition of TNF-α expression by neutralizing antibodies significantly decreased annexin V staining in cells compared with those treated with a control antibody. We identified three microRNAs that were differentially expressed in INS-1 cells incubated with IL-6. In particular, miR-181c was significantly downregulated in IL-6-treated cells compared with control cells and the decrease of miR-181c was attenuated by STAT-3 signaling inhibition. TNF-α mRNA was a direct target of miR-181c and upregulation of miR-181c by mimics, inhibited IL-6-induced increase in TNF-α mRNA expression. Consequently, reduction of TNF-α mRNA caused by miR-181c mimics enhanced cell viability in IL-6 treated INS-1 cells. These results demonstrated that miR-181c regulation of TNF-α expression plays a role in IL-6-induced beta cell apoptosis.
