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

Glucose 6-phosphate isomerase (G6PI) is an indicator to assist in diagnosis of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and monitor the disease. It also plays a key role in proliferating RA synovial tissues, pannus formation, and invasion and destruction of articular cartilage. In this study, we synthesized nanoparticles targeting G6PI (siG6PI-MSN) using mesoporous silica nanocarriers (MSN) and small interfering RNA (siRNA), followed by identifying the characteristics and functions, and preliminarily exploring their application in the treatment of RA in vivo with a type II collagen-induced arthritis (CIA) rat model. It showed that the synthetic functionalized carrier had a regular pore structure and a specific volume and surface area. No obvious hemolysis or toxicity of the carrier was found when its concentration was below 100 µg/ml. Cytological results in vitro suggested that siG6PI-MSN significantly inhibited G6PI expression and reduced the ability of proliferation, migration, and invasion of FLSs, compared with the siNC-MSN group. In vivo results in the CIA rat model showed that the arthritis index and degree of joint swelling among rats in the siG6PI-MSN-treatment group were significantly lower than those in the control group. Moreover, the number of FLSs in Synovium and the levels of TNF α and IL-1 β were also significantly decreased in the siG6PI-MSN group. Histopathology of the synovial tissue and cartilage revealed siG6PI-MSN treatment significantly reduced the pathological manifestations of arthritis. In conclusion, siG6PI-MSN effectively suppresses the proliferation and invasive growth of synovial tissue and improve joint swelling and inflammatory infiltration, thereby preventing joint damage in RA. This carrier may be a new therapeutic measure for RA, with potential social and economic benefits.
