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 NLRP3 inflammasome is a multi-molecular complex that acts as a molecular platform to mediate caspase-1 activation, leading to IL-1β/IL-18 maturation and release in cells stimulated by various pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs) or damage-associated molecular patterns (DAMPs). This inflammasome plays an important role in the innate immunity as its activation can further promote the occurrence of inflammation, enhance the ability of host to remove pathogens, and thus facilitate the repair of injured tissues. But if the inflammasome activation is dysregulated, it will cause the development of various inflammatory diseases and metabolic disorders. Therefore, under normal conditions, the activation of inflammasome is tightly regulated by various positive and negative signaling pathways to respond to the stimuli without damaging the host itself while maintaining homeostasis. In this review, we summarize recent advances in the major signaling pathways (including TLRs, MAPK, mTOR, autophagy, PKA, AMPK, and IFNR) that regulate NLRP3 inflammasome activation, providing a brief view of the molecular network that regulates this inflammasome as a theoretical basis for therapeutic intervention of NLRP3 dysregulation-related diseases.
