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

objectiveIt has been shown that JAK2/STAT3 is involved in the occurrence of various inflammatory diseases. The purpose of this study was to associate the expression of Janus kinase 2 (JAK2) and its receptor signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3) and suppressors of cytokine signaling 3 (SOCS3), to periapical granuloma.

methodsSamples were collected from 40 patients who were divided into two groups, namely, healthy control (N=20) and periapical granuloma (N=20) groups in accordance with classified standards. The samples were prepared for histological analysis, immunohistochemistry, and double immunofluorescence staining.

resultsOnly slight inflammatory cell infiltration was observed in the tissues from the healthy control group. Extensive infiltration of inflammatory cells was observed in patients with chronic periapical disease. The periapical granuloma group had higher levels of JAK2, STAT3, p-JAK2, p-STAT3 and SOCS3 (all P<0.05) than the control group. Double immunofluorescence staining results showed the presence of JAK2-positive and STAT3-positive cells in the periapical lesion areas.

conclusionsThis study demonstrated that JAK2, STAT3, and SOCS3 can be observed and may be associated with the inflammatory process in periapical lesions. The results of this study will provide new insights into the pathological mechanisms of human periapical granuloma.
