TNFAIP3 may be key to TLR4-activation of the inflammasome in the retinal vasculature.
Article in Experimental eye research, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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.
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 goal of these studies were to determine whether tumor necrosis factor, alpha-induced protein 3 (TNFAIP3) regulated toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) actions on the NOD-like receptor protein 3 (NLRP3) inflammasome. Western blotting was done on retinal lysates from TLR4 floxed and endothelial cell specific TLR4 knockout mice for TNFAIP3, TLR4, and NLRP3 pathway proteins. Retinal endothelial cells (REC) were grown in normal (5 mM) and high glucose (25 mM) and treated with TNFAIP3 siRNA, followed by Western blotting for TLR4 and NLRP3 pathway proteins. Loss of TLR4 in endothelial cells increased TNFAIP3 levels, while decreasing NLRP3 pathway proteins. High glucose culturing conditions increased TLR4 and NLRP3 proteins, which were also increased by TNFAIP3 siRNA. Data demonstrate that TLR4 regulates NLRP3 pathway proteins. TNFAIP3 can regulate TLR4 and the NLRP3 pathway. TNFAIP3 may offer a new target for therapeutic development against retinal inflammation.
