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

The occurrence and development of acute lung injury (ALI) involve a variety of pathological factors and complex mechanisms. How pulmonary cells communicate with each other and subsequently trigger an inflammatory cascade remains elusive. Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are a critical class of membrane-bound structures that have been widely investigated for their roles in pathophysiological processes, especially in immune responses and tumor progression. Most of the current knowledge of the functions of EVs is related to functions derived from viable cells (e.g., microvesicles and exosomes) or apoptotic cells (e.g., apoptotic bodies); however, there is limited understanding of the rapidly progressing inflammatory response in ALI. Herein, a comprehensive analysis of micron-sized EVs revealed a mass production of 1-5 μm pyroptotic bodies (PyrBDs) release in the early phase of ALI induced by lipopolysaccharide (LPS). Alveolar macrophages were the main source of PyrBDs in the early phase of ALI, and the formation and release of PyrBDs were dependent on caspase-1. Furthermore, PyrBDs promoted the activation of epithelial cells, induced vascular leakage and recruited neutrophils through delivery of damage-associated molecular patterns (DAMPs). Collectively, these findings suggest that PyrBDs are mainly released by macrophages in a caspase-1-dependent manner and serve as mediators of LPS-induced ALI.
