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

Nucleus pulposus (NP) cell pyroptosis plays a critical role in the pathogenesis of intervertebral disk degeneration (IDD). MIR155 host gene (MIR155HG) is a long non-coding RNA with pro-inflammatory activity. However, very little is known about its role in NP cell pyroptosis. This study aimed to observe the impact of MIR155HG on cell pyroptosis and to explore the underlying mechanism in human degenerative NP cells. Our results demonstrated that MIR155HG expression was significantly increased in human degenerative NP tissue samples and showed a positive correlation with Pfirrmann score. Overexpression of MIR155HG through a lentiviral vector decreased miR-223-3p levels, up-regulated NLRP3 expression and induced cell pyroptosis in human degenerative NP cells. A ceRNA action mode was identified among MIR155HG, miR-223-3p, and NLRP3. The stimulatory effect of MIR155HG on human degenerative NP cell pyroptosis was significantly reversed by pretreatment with miR-223-3p mimic or NLRP3 siRNA. In summary, these data suggest that MIR155HG sponges miR-223-3p to promote NLRP3 expression, leading to induction of cell pyroptosis in human degenerative NP cells. Targeting MIR155HG could be a novel and promising strategy to slow down the progression of IDD.
