Regulation of pro and anti-inflammatory signaling molecules in effect of Withania Somnifera root extract treated sleep deprivation induced Wistar rats.
Article in Bioinformation, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Sleep plays an imperative role in maintaining good health. Sleep along with circadian cycle wields strong regulatory control over immunity. Sleep deprivation (SD) is a threat to health developing several immunological disorders. The medicinal plant Withania somnifera (WS) root extract is widely used for its immuno-modulatory properties. Therefore, it is of interest to assess the effect of WS root extract on pro and anti-inflammatory signalling in SD rats. 24 male Wistar rats (120-150g) were divided into 4 groups with 6 animals in each. The groups were divided such that Group I - cage control, Group II - large platform control, Group III - sleep deprived & Group IV - WS treated SD rats. RT-PCR based mRNA expression analysis of pro inflammatory (IL-1β, IL-6, MCP-1, TNF-α) and anti-inflammatory marker (IL-10) in the cortex of control and SD rats were completed. Concurrent protein expression analysis was completed using western blot. Data was analyzed using one-way ANOVA and Duncan's multiple range test in SPSS software version 20. Data showed elevation of pro-inflammatory markers and depression of IL-10. Thus, WS down regulated the pro-inflammatory and up-regulated the anti-inflammatory molecules, which can be further considered towards the treatment of sleep deprivation induced inflammatory diseases.
