Anti-fibrotic Actions of Equine Interleukin-10 on Transforming Growth Factor-Beta1-Stimulated Dermal Fibroblasts Isolated From Limbs of Horses.

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.
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
Fibroproliferative disorders occur in both humans and horses following skin injury. In horses, wound healing on the limb is often complicated by the formation of fibroproliferative exuberant granulation tissue, characterized by persistent expression of pro-fibrotic transforming growth factor-beta1 (TGF-β1) and deficient expression of anti-inflammatory interleukin-10 (IL-10). IL-10 has been shown to directly modulate fibrotic gene expression in human fibroblasts, so we hypothesized that equine IL-10 (eIL-10) may exert similar anti-fibrotic effects on equine dermal fibroblasts. Cell-lines were created from the limb skin of six individual horses. Recombinant eIL-10 was produced and purified, and its effects on the cells investigated in the presence and absence of equine TGF-β1 (eTGF-β1). Myofibroblast differentiation and collagen production were examined using immunofluorescent cytometry, cell contractility in a collagen gel assay, and fibrotic gene expression using quantitative PCR. In response to eTGF-β1, fibroblasts increased in contractility and expression of alpha-smooth muscle actin, collagen types 1 and 3, and matrix metalloproteinase 1, 2, and 9. Equine IL-10 limited cell contractility and production of alpha-smooth muscle actin and type 3 collagen, and decreased mRNA levels of
