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

Release of titanium ions (Ti ions) frequently occurs around dental implants and, as a consequence, higher content of Ti is typically present in peri-implantitis tissue. Unlike chronic periodontitis, Ti ions may play a role in the development of peri-implantitis. Inflammasomes are multiprotein signal transduction complexes, involved in inflammation and immune response, which lead to the secretion of mature cytokines associated with the progression of peri-implantitis. It is well known that T lymphocytes dominate the immune response in peri-implantitis, but whether Ti ions can impact the assembly of functional inflammasomes in T cells still remains unclear. Here, we observed that the mRNA expression of NLRP3 and CASP1, as well as the secretion of IL-1β, increased after 6-h incubation of Jurkat T cells with PHA and Ti ions. Moreover, measurement by confocal microscopy and flow cytometry assay indicates that Ti ions can promote the production of ROS, while NLRP3 expression and IL-1β secretion are reduced after treatment of Jurkat cells with NAC (ROS scavenger). Taken together, we presently show that Ti ions can activate NLRP3 inflammasome and then promote IL-β secretion in vitro, where ROS may play a mechanistic role in this activation process.
