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

backgroundAngiopoietin-like protein 2 (ANGPTL2) is a secreted molecule with numerous physiologic and pathologic functions, for example, in angiogenesis, hematopoiesis, and tumorigenesis. Although recent studies implicated ANGPTL2 in chronic inflammation in mouse peritoneal macrophages, human ligamentum flavum fibroblasts, and human retinal microvascular endothelial cells, the mechanism underlying ANGPTL2-associated inflammation in chondrocytes remains unclear. Therefore, it was investigated whether ANGPTL2 is expressed in or functions in chondrocytes.

methodsExpression of ANGPTL2 and its receptor, integrin α5β1 were examined over time in ATDC5 cells using real-time RT-PCR (reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction) analysis. ATDC5 cells were then incubated with or without ANGPTL2 for 3 hours, and expression of the IL-1β, TNF-α, COX-2, aggrecanase (ADAMTS)-5, matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)-3, and MMP-13 genes were examined using real-time RT-PCR. Additionally, phosphorylation of ERK, JNK, p38, Akt, and NF-κB was examined by western blotting. Furthermore, it was also investigated for the effect of anti-integrin α

resultsANGPTL2 induced the phosphorylation of all 3 MAPKs, Akt, and NF-κB and dramatically upregulated the expression of inflammation-related factor genes. Inhibiting the activation of integrin α5β1 suppressed these reactions.

conclusionANGPTL2 may induce inflammatory factors by stimulating the integrin α5β1/MAPKs, Akt, and NF-κB signaling pathway.
