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

backgroundThe p53 isoform Δ133p53β is known to be associated with cancers driven by inflammation. Many of the features associated with the development of inflammation in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) parallel those evident in cancer progression. However, the role of this isoform in RA has not yet been explored. The aim of this study was to determine whether Δ133p53β is driving aggressive disease in RA.

methodsUsing RA patient synovia, we carried out RT-qPCR and RNAScope-ISH to determine both protein and mRNA levels of Δ133p53 and p53. We also used IHC to determine the location and type of cells with elevated levels of Δ133p53β. Plasma cytokines were also measured using a BioPlex cytokine panel and data analysed by the Milliplex Analyst software.

resultsElevated levels of pro-inflammatory plasma cytokines were associated with synovia from RA patients displaying extensive tissue inflammation, increased immune cell infiltration and the highest levels of Δ133TP53 and TP53β mRNA. Located in perivascular regions of synovial sub-lining and surrounding ectopic lymphoid structures (ELS) were a subset of cells with high levels of CD90, a marker of 'activated fibroblasts' together with elevated levels of Δ133p53β.
