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

objectivesInnate immunity plays a significant role in the pathogenesis of temporomandibular joint osteoarthritis (TMJOA), which is characterized by synovial inflammation and condylar cartilage degradation. We are urged to investigate the impact of Resatorvid, a preventative drug that inhibits Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4), on experimental inflammatory TMJOA pathology.

methodsAn intra-articular injection of complete Freund's adjuvant (CFA) was used to induce an experimental inflammatory mouse TMJOA model, and TLR4 expression was identified by immunofluorescent labeling. Intraperitoneal injections of Resatorvid were administered to CFA-induced TMJOA mice, and the pathology of TMJOA animals with and without Resatorvid treatment was examined by H&E, Safranin-O/Fast Green, and TRAP staining, as well as micro-CT, immunohistochemistry, and immunofluorescence. The impact of Resatorvid on chondrocyte pyroptosis and macrophage inflammation was further investigated using ATDC5 chondrocytes and RAW264.7 macrophages pretreated with relevant antagonists.

resultsCFA-induced TMJOA mice revealed remarkable synovial inflammation, together with a time course of cartilage degradation and bone destruction, with TLR4 elevated in the synovium and condylar cartilage. Prophylactic treatment with Resatorvid mitigated synovial inflammation, cartilage degeneration, and bone destruction in CFA-induced TMJOA mice and downregulated MyD88/NF-κB expression. Ex vivo studies demonstrated that Resatorvid treatment alleviated NOD-like receptor protein 3 (NLRP3)-mediated chondrocyte pyroptosis and degeneration and relieved macrophage inflammation by preventing reactive oxygen species (ROS) production through NLRP3 signaling.

conclusionProphylactic treatment with Resatorvid alleviates TMJOA pathology by inhibiting chondrocyte pyroptosis and degeneration, as well as ROS-induced macrophage inflammation, through TLR4/MyD88/NF-κB/NLRP3.
