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

backgroundInflammasomes and sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P) signalling are increasingly subject to intensive research in human diseases. We hypothesize that in respiratory muco-obstructive diseases, mucus obstruction enhances NLRP3 inflammasome activation and dysregulated S1P signalling.

methodsLung tissues from mice overexpressing the beta-unit of the epithelial sodium channel (βENaC) and their littermate controls were examined by histology, immunofluorescence and confocal microscopy, followed by ImageJ quantitative analysis.

resultsLower airways in βENaC mice showed patchy patterns of mucus obstruction and neutrophil-dominant infiltrations. In contrast to a ubiquitous distribution of TNFα specks, significantly (

conclusionThese results support that mucus obstruction may enhance NLRP3 inflammasome activation and dysregulated S1P signaling.
