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

Intermittent hypoxia (IH)-induced cognition decline is related to the neuroinflammation in microglia. SUMOylation is associated with multiple human diseases, which can be reversed by sentrin/SUMO-specific proteases 1 (SENP1). Herein, we investigated the role of SENP1 in IH-induced inflammation and cognition decline. BV-2 microglial cells and mice were used for inflammatory response and cognition function evaluation following IH treatment. Biochemical analysis and Morris water maze methods were used to elaborate the mechanism of SENP1 in IH impairment. Molecular results revealed that IH induced the inflammatory response, as evidenced by the up-regulation of NF-κB activation, IL-1β and TNF-α in vitro and in vivo. Moreover, IH decreased the expression of SENP1, and increased the SUMOylation of NEMO, not NF-κB P65. Moreover, SENP1 overexpression inhibited IH-induced inflammatory response and SUMOylation of NEMO. However, the inhibitions were abolished by siRNA-NEMO. In contrast, SENP1 depletion enhanced IH-induced inflammatory response and SUMOylation of NEMO, accompanying with increased latency and reduced dwell time in mice. Overall, the results demonstrated that SENP1 regulated IH-induced neuroinflammation by modulating the SUMOylation of NEMO, thus activating the NF-κB pathway, revealing that targeting SENP1 in microglia may represent a novel therapeutic strategy for IH-induced cognitive decline.
