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

Previous studies have demonstrated that 27-hydroxycholesterol (27-OHC), a cholesterol metabolite, was involved in the inflammatory process of Alzheimer's disease (AD). The present study aimed to investigate the 27-OHC-induced inflammatory damage to neurons and astrocytes and the underlying mechanism(s) accounting for this damage. Human neuroblastoma cells (SH-SY5Y cells) and rat glioma cells (C6 cells) were treated with vehicle or 27-OHC (5, 10, or 20 μM) for 24 hr. The levels of secreted interleukin-1β (IL-1β), interleukin-10 (IL-10), tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α), and inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) were determined by using an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Immunofluorescence staining was used to determine the cellular expression of toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) and transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β). The mRNA and protein expression levels of nuclear factor-κB p65 (NF-κB p65), nuclear factor-κB p50 (NF-κB p50) and cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) in both SH-SY5Y and C6 cells were also detected by real-time PCR and Western blot, respectively. The results of this study showed that 27-OHC treatment increased secretion of TNF-α and iNOS and decreased secretion of IL-10, upregulated expression of TGF-β, NF-κB p65 and p50, and downregulated expression of COX-2 in SH-SY5Y cells. In C6 cells, treatment with 27-OHC resulted in decreased secretion of IL-1β, IL-10, TNF-α, and iNOS, and increased expression of TLR4 and TGF-β. These results suggest that 27-OHC may cause inflammatory damage to neurons by activating the TGF-β/NF-κB signaling pathway and to astrocytes by activating the TLR4/TGF-β signaling, which results in the subsequent release of inflammatory cytokines.
