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

This study was performed to investigate the effect of moxibustion on the RAGE/TLR4-NF-κBp65 pathways and mucosal damage in rat model of 5-fluorouracil (5-Fu)-induced intestinal mucositis (IM) and the underlying mechanisms. 5-Fu treatment significantly increased the expression of the receptor for advanced glycation end products (RAGE) and its ligand, thehigh-mobility group box 1 protein (HMGB1), in the rat intestinal tissue. The inhibition of RAGE could induce the repair of intestinal mucosal damage and downregulate the expression of Toll-like receptor (TLR)-4 and nuclear factor kappa-B (NF-κB) p65 in intestinal tissues of 5-Fu-treated rats. Moxibustion treatment significantly improved the physical symptoms and repaired the intestinal mucosal damage of IM rats and increased the expression of tight junction proteins in these rats. The expression of RAGE, HMGB1, TLR4, NF-κBp65, and related downstream inflammatory factors, namely, tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α, interleukin (IL)-6 and IL-1β, were significantly decreased after moxibustion treatment. A moxibustion dose of 15 min/day exerted a better therapeutic effect than a dose of 30 min/day. The phosphorylation of NF-κBp65 and IκBa is involved in reducing inflammation by regulating the RAGE signaling pathway. Moxibustion can reduce intestinal mucosal damage and inflammation in 5-Fu-induced IM rats via modulation of the RAGE/TLR4-NF-κBp65 signaling pathways.
