ASK1/p38‑mediated NLRP3 inflammasome signaling pathway contributes to aberrant retinal angiogenesis in diabetic retinopathy.

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
Diabetic retinopathy (DR) is the leading cause of blindness among the working‑age population in several countries. Despite the available treatments, some patients are diagnosed at the late stages of the disease when treatment is more difficult. Hence, it is crucial that novel targets are identified in order to improve the clinical therapy of DR. In the present study, an animal model of DR and a cell model using primary human retinal microvascular endothelial cells exposed to high glucose were constructed to examine the association between apoptosis signal‑regulating kinase 1 (ASK1)/p38 and NLR family pyrin domain containing 3 (NLRP3) in DR. The results revealed that DR induced inflammatory response and microvascular cell proliferation. NLRP3 contributed to DR‑mediated inflammatory development and progression, which promoted the expression of inflammatory‑related cytokines. In addition, NLRP3 promoted the tube formation of retinal microvascular endothelial cells and angiogenesis. Moreover, further research indicated that the NLRP3‑mediated aberrant retinal angiogenesis in DR was regulated by ASK1 and p38. It was thus suggested that ASK1/p38 may be novel target for the treatment of DR.
