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

Sepsis, a systemic inflammatory response mediated by excessive production of diverse inflammatory cytokines, remains the vital cause of morality in the intensive care unit (ICU). TLR4-MD2 (toll-like receptor 4-myeloid differentiation factor 2) complex activated by LPS serves as an effective target to decrease the inflammation during sepsis. In this study, we evaluated the effects of a new small molecule Z20 structural based on (2S, 3R, 4S)-chromene-3-carboxamide on LPS-induced sepsis in mice. We found Z20 markedly improved the survival rate and attenuated the multiply organs injury after LPS administration in mice. In addition, Z20 significantly alleviated organ inflammation as characterized by diminished inflammatory factors expression in vivo. Furthermore, by employing surface plasmon resonance (SPR) experiment, we identified that TLR4-MD2 complex was the potential target for Z20. Finally, we performed the safety assessment experiment to confirm the safety of Z20 in vivo. In conclusion, Z20, as a potential TLR4-MD2 inhibitor, effectively attenuated LPS-induced organ injury and inflammation.
