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

Sepsis-associated acute liver injury (SALI) is an independent risk for sepsis-induced death orchestrated by innate and adaptive immune responses. Here, we found that Roquin-1 was decreased during SALI and expressed mainly in monocyte-derived macrophages. Meanwhile, Roquin-1 was correlated with the inflammatory profiles in humans and mice. Mechanically, Roquin-1 in macrophages promoted Ago2-K258-ubiquitination and inhibited Ago2-S387/S828-phosphorylation. Ago2-S387-phosphorylation inhibited Ago2-miRNA's complex location in multivesicular bodies and sorting in macrophages-derived extracellular vesicles (MDEVs), while Ago2-S828-phosphorylation modulated the binding between Ago2 and miRNAs by special miRNAs-motifs. Then, the anti-inflammatory miRNAs in MDEVs decreased TSC22D2 expression directly, upregulated Tregs-differentiation via TSC22D2-STAT3 signaling, and inhibited M1-macrophage-polarization by TSC22D2-AMPKα-mTOR pathway. Furthermore, WT MDEVs in mice alleviated SALI by increasing Tregs ratio and decreasing M1-macrophage frequency synchronously. Our study showed that Roquin-1 in macrophages increased Tregs-differentiation and decreased M1-macrophage-polarization simultaneously via miRNA in MDEVs, suggesting Roquin-1 can be used as a potential tool for SALI treatment and MDEVs engineering.
