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

Silica dioxide nanoparticles (SiONPs) have been increasingly used in various industries; however, this has raised concerns regarding their potential toxicity. SiONPs are also a major component in the Asian sand dust that causes pulmonary diseases among the general public. Melatonin exerts some inhibitory effects against lung inflammation. In this study, we explored the therapeutic properties of melatonin against lung inflammation using an SiONPs-induced lung inflammation murine model and SiONPs-stimulated H292 cells, human airway epithelial cell line, by focusing on the involvement of thioredoxin-interacting protein (TXNIP) in the modulation of the MAPKs/AP-1 axis. We induced an inflammatory response by exposing mouse lungs and the H292 cells to SiONPs and confirmed the anti-inflammatory effect of melatonin. Melatonin inhibited the expression of various inflammatory mediators, including
