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

backgroundGouty arthritis (GA) is a common type of inflammatory arthritis. Recent studies demonstrated that 1,25-dihydroxy vitamin D3 (1,25(OH) 2 VD3) and vitamin D3 receptor (VD-R) play a protective role in acute inflammation, but interleukin-22(IL-22) promotes inflammation, especially for arthritis. However, our understanding of the responses of 1,25(OH) 2VD3 and IL-22 to gout was still unclear. Presently, in-depth metabolomics, bioinformatics and clinical characteristics analyses were performed to elucidate the pathogenesis and valuable clinical indicators of gouty arthritis.

methodsPeripheral venous blood was taken for investigation. The levels of IL-22 and 1,25(OH)

resultsThe levels of VD-R and 1,25(OH) 2 VD3 were identified to be low. What

conclusionGA patients have low levels of VD-R and 1,25(OH) 2 VD3, and high levels of IL-22 together with various amino acids and uric acid. The levels of IL-22 and 1,25(OH) 2VD3 were positively and negatively correlated with C-reactive protein (CRP) serum levels, respectively. Both IL-22 and 1,25(OH) 2 VD3 functioned in GA-related immune and inflammatory responses, and closely correlated with the level of GA-related uric acid. Overall, IL-22, VD-R and 1,25(OH) 2 VD3 play functionally important roles in inflammatory responses and are relevant to gout pathogenesis.
