Epac1 and PKA agonists inhibit ROS to reduce NLRP3 inflammasome proteins in retinal endothelial cells.

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
Purpose: Reactive oxygen species (ROS) activate inflammatory pathways in several organs, including the retina. More recent work has shown that ROS activate the NOD-like receptor protein 3 (NLRP3) inflammasome pathway proteins. We recently showed that the exchange protein activated by cAMP 1 (Epac1) and protein kinase A (PKA) regulates NLRP3 proteins in the retina. Our goal was to determine whether Epac1 and PKA reduce ROS and NLRP3 inflammasome proteins. Methods: We used human primary retinal endothelial cells (RECs) grown in normal glucose (5 mM) and stimulated in normal glucose with hydrogen peroxide (H Results: The data showed that 500 µM H Conclusions: Taken together, these data suggest that Epac1 and PKA reduce retinal inflammation through the reduced ROS-induced activation of NLRP3 pathway proteins.
