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

purposeThe Hippo signaling pathway participates in the restriction of cell proliferation and organ growth. Activated macrophages have been implicated in the pathogenesis of allergic asthma. Recent studies have shown that Hippo signaling pathway may also be involved in the regulation of asthma. However, the link between Hippo signaling pathway and macrophages in the context of allergic asthma has not been investigated. The purpose of this study was to explore the link between Hippo signaling pathway and macrophages using a mice model of OVA-induced allergic asthma.

methodsMice models of asthma were established. Lung tissues were collected from mice and pooled for mRNA sequencing and bioinformatics analysis. The relative mRNA expression of Hippo signalling pathway-related proteins Yap1, Lef1 and Ctgf was also measured. Double immunofluorescence staining was performed on lung tissues to evaluate macrophage marker F4/80 expression and Yap1/Lef1/Ctgf expression.

resultsResults of the RNA-Seq of lung tissues demonstrated that the Hippo signaling pathway was down-regulated in OVA-induced allergic asthma. Using the cytoHubba tool kits in Cytoscape, the following top 10 hub genes of Hippo signalling pathway were identified:

conclusionThese results demonstrated that the Hippo signaling pathway was down-regulated in asthma mice, and the proliferation of macrophages was associated with downregulation of the Hippo signaling pathway. These findings reveal novel insights into the pathogenesis and treatment of asthma.
