Bronchial epithelial cells release inflammatory markers linked to airway inflammation and remodeling in response to TLR5 ligand flagellin.

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
Background/Aims: Flagellin, which is abundant in gram-negative bacteria, including Methods: Normal human bronchial epithelial (NHBE) cells were grown and differentiated in air-liquid interface (ALI) culture for 14-16 days. The cells were treated with flagellin Results: Altered transcriptional responses to flagellin in differentiated bronchial epithelial cells were determined, including genes encoding chemokines, matrix metalloproteinases, and antimicrobial biomolecules. Pathway analysis of the transcriptionally responsive genes revealed enrichment of signaling pathways. Flagellin induced the mRNA expressions of proinflammatory cytokines and chemokines, and secretion of GM-CSF, CXCL5, CCL5 and CXCL10. Flagellin enhanced the protein expression of MMP-13 in TGF-β1 and TGF-β2 pretreated cell lysates and Wnt/β-catenin signaling. Conclusions: These findings suggest that flagellin could be a potent inducer of inflammatory markers that may contribute to airway inflammation and remodeling.
