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

The inflammasome is widely acknowledged for its crucial role in the pathogenesis of cancers and many neurodegenerative, metabolic, and auto-inflammatory diseases in recent years. Multiple types of inflammasomes exist. However, nucleotide-binding oligomerization domain-like receptor family pyrin domain containing 3 (NLRP3) inflammasome is the most often investigated inflammasome and has come to limelight in recent studies. NLRP3 inflammasome is a multi-protein complex. Its activation can cause the cleavage of inactive pro-caspase-1 into activated caspase-1, that ultimately promotes the transformation of pro-interleukin (IL)-1β and pro-IL-18 into biologically-active IL-1β and IL-18, respectively. These processes lead to the local inflammatory responses and induce pyroptosis, causing disparaging effects. Recently, numerous studies have shown that NLRP3 inflammasome plays an important role in the pathogenesis of liver diseases, including non-alcoholic fatty liver disease, liver fibrosis, cirrhosis, and hepatocellular carcinoma. Liver diseases have become a severe health burden worldwide, and there is adequate evidence indicating that the regulation of NLRP3 inflammasome acts as a guard against hazard to liver. In this review, we provide a straightforward overview of NLRP3 inflammasome as well as several frequent liver diseases. We then discuss the contribution and regulation of NLRP3 inflammasome during the pathogenesis of liver diseases, which may provide an important indication for the prevention and treatment of various liver diseases.
