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

Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a chronic and debilitating autoimmune disorder of the central nervous system in which the autoimmune T cells destroy myelin, thus causing lesion, damage, and neuronal dysfunction. Experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE) is an animal model of MS that is particularly useful for testing new therapeutic approaches against MS. Aspirin (acetyl salicylic acid) is one of the oldest and widely used medicines in the world, and recently it has been shown that low-dose aspirin is capable of suppressing the disease process of EAE in mice. One of the root causes of this autoimmune disease process is the decrease and/or suppression of Foxp3-expressing anti-autoimmune regulatory T cells (Tregs) and associated increase in autoimmune T-helper 1 (Th1) and Th17 cells. Aspirin upregulates Tregs and decreases Th1 and Th17 responses. Accordingly, the suppression of Tregs abrogates the protective effect of aspirin on EAE, indicating that aspirin protects EAE via Tregs. While there are several mechanisms for the maintenance of Tregs under immune insults, aspirin increases the level of interleukin-11 (IL-11), an immunomodulatory cytokine, and IL-11 alone is sufficient to protect Tregs. Being a multifunctional molecule, aspirin stimulates the activation of cAMP-response element-binding (CREB) to promote the recruitment of CREB to the
