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

Macrophages play a crucial role in the development of atherosclerosis. To explore the mechanism by which macrophages attain a proinflammatory phenotype for a sustained period, we stimulated macrophages with lipopolysaccharide (LPS) and interferon-γ (IFN-γ) and measured the interleukin-1β (IL-1β) expression. The IL-1β expression increased transiently, and its expression lasted for, at least, 1 week after the cessation of LPS and IFN-γ stimulation. At the promoter region of the IL-1β gene, the demethylation of histone H3 lysine 27 (H3K27) was significantly induced for 1 week after transient stimulation with LPS and IFN-γ. The expression of H3K27 demethylases ubiquitously transcribed tetratricopeptide repeat, X chromosome (UTX) and jumonji domain-containing 3 (JMJD3) increased significantly for 1 week after transient stimulation with LPS and IFN-γ. When the UTX expression was inhibited by using small interfering RNA (siRNA) for UTX, the IL-1β expression was significantly suppressed in both transient and sustained phases, whereas siRNA for JMJD3 significantly inhibited only the sustained phase of the IL-1β expression. These results suggested that H3K27 demethylation was implicated in the transient and sustained increase in the IL-1β expression after LPS and IFN-γ stimulation.
