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

Background: Cervical spondylotic myelopathy (CSM) is a spinal cord disease caused by cervical disc degeneration and related pathological changes. Cervical spondylotic myelopathy may result from inflammation responses and neuronal damage. Thioredoxin-interacting protein (TXNIP)/NOD-like receptor protein 3 (NLRP3) signaling promotes inflammation. However, the effects of TXNIP/NLRP3 on the pathogenesis of CSM have not been reported. Methods: A rat model of chronic cervical cord compression was established to observe changes in the levels of of TNXIP/NeuN and NLRP3/NeuN expression in the damaged anterior horn of the spinal cord following progression of CSM. Rats were injected with TXNIP small interfering RNA (siRNA) and scrambled control to determine the effects of TXNIP inhibition on NLRP3-mediated inflammation in rats with CSM. Behaviors effects and the expression of NLRP3 and pro-caspase-1 in the damaged spinal cord were evaluated. Results: The expression levels of TXNIP and NLRP3 were significantly increased in the damaged anterior horn of the spinal cord following CSM. Injection of TXNIP siRNA significantly improved behavioral measures and decreased apoptosis in the damaged anterior horn of spinal cord. Furthermore, the levels of NLRP3 and pro-caspase-1 in the lesioned area were reduced by the TXNIP siRNA injection. Conclusion: Thioredoxin-interacting protein participated in NLRP3 mediated inflammation in a rat model of CSM, which indicated that TXNIP may be a potential therapeutic target in improving CSM.
