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

Purpose: To explore the molecular mechanism by which andrographolide (ADR) inhibits static mechanical pressure-induced apoptosis in nucleus pulposus cells (NPCs) and to assess the role of ADR in inhibiting IDD. Methods: Hematoxylin-eosin (HE), toluidine blue, and immunofluorescence staining were used to identify NPCs. An NPC apoptosis model was constructed using a homemade cell pressurization device. The proliferation activity, reactive oxygen species (ROS) content, and apoptosis rate were detected using kits. The expression of related proteins was detected using Western blot. A rat tailbone IDD model was constructed using a homemade tailbone stress device. HE staining and safranine O-fast green FCF cartilage staining were used to observe the degeneration degree of the intervertebral disk. Results: ADR inhibits static mechanical pressure-induced apoptosis and ROS accumulation in NPCs and improves cell viability. ADR can promote the expression of Heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1), p-Nrf2, p-p38, p-Erk1/2, p-JNK, and other proteins, and its effects can be blocked by inhibitors of the above proteins. Conclusion: ADR can inhibit IDD by activating the MAPK/Nrf2/HO-1 signaling pathway and suppressing static mechanical pressure-induced ROS accumulation in the NPCs.
