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 present study aimed to investigate the effects of interleukin-17 (IL-17) on the function of keratinocytes and to further investigate its associated mechanism. Human immortalized epidermal cells (HaCaT) were divided into sham control group (Sham), TRAF3 interacting protein 2 (TRAF3IP2)-knockdown with lentivirus group (si-TRAF3IP2), sham control+IL-17 group (Sham+IL-17) and TRAF3IP2-knockdown with lentivirus+IL-17 group (si-TRAF3IP2+IL-17). MTT and flow cytometry assays demonstrated that IL-17 promoted proliferation and inhibited apoptosis of HaCaT cells, while this effect was reversed following knockdown of TRAF3IP2 with lentiviral vectors. In addition, a marked increase in the levels of IL-6, IL-8, IL-23, TNF-α and VEGF was observed in the Sham+IL-17 group compared with that noted in the Sham group (P<0.05). Furthermore, reverse transcription-quantitative polymerase chain reaction and western blotting indicated that the mRNA and protein expression levels of caspase-3 in the si-TRAF3IP2+IL-17 group were significantly increased compared with those of the Sham+IL-17 group (P<0.05). Taken together, the results indicated that IL-17 promoted proliferation and inflammation and inhibited apoptosis of HaCaT cells by interacting with the TRAF3IP2 adaptor protein, while knockdown of the expression of TRAF3IP2 reduced the effects of IL-17 in HaCaT cells.
