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

purposeResveratrol (Res) is a natural polyphenolic compound found in several plants and reported as a promising biological molecule with effective anti-fibrosis and anti-inflammatory activities. However, the underlying mechanism of Res on systemic sclerosis (SSc) remains unclear. In the study, we identified the key cellular signaling pathways involved in the Res regulatory process on SSc.

methodsRes-targeted genes interaction network was constructed using the STITCH database, and the shared Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathways involved in both SSc and Res-targeted genes were then identified. The top five enriched KEGG pathways were visualized by GOplot. KEGG pathways associated with Res-targeted genes were established by Pathway Builder Tool 2.0. Quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR) was used to assess the expression of sirtuin 1 (SIRT1), mammalian targeted of rapamycin (mTOR), and cytokines.

resultsEnrichment analysis of Res-targeted genes showed 79 associated pathways, 27 of which were also involved in SSc. Particularly, SIRT1/mTOR signaling was found as one of the crucial regulatory pathways. In vitro results suggested that SIRT1-mediated mTOR degradation ameliorated bleomycin (BLM)-induced fibrosis and inflammation. Res was capable of elevating the SIRT1 level in fibroblasts and partially reversing mTOR-dependent induction of fibrosis and inflammation.

conclusionThese results indicated that Res is a feasible and effective choice for SSc and therapeutic target of mTOR could be a potential alternative for treatment of SSc.
