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

backgroundMicroRNAs are differentially expressed in periodontitis tissues. They are involved in cellular responses to inflammation and can be used as markers for diagnosing periodontitis. Microarray analysis showed that the expression level of microRNA-671-5p in periodontal tissues of patients with periodontitis was increased. In this study, we investigated the mechanism of action of microRNA-671-5p in human periodontal ligament stem cells (hPDLSCs) under inflammatory conditions. METHODS AND

resultsHPDLSCs were treated with lipopolysaccharide (LPS) to establish an inflammation model. The cell survival rate was determined using the cell counting kit-8 (CCK8). Real-time quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) and western blot analyses were used to detect the expression of microRNA-671-5p and dual-specificity phosphatase (DUSP) 8 proteins, respectively, Interleukin (IL)-6, IL-1β, and tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α were detected using qRT-PCR and Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). A dual-luciferase reporter system was employed to determine the relationship between micoRNA-671-5p and DUSP8 expression. Activation of the p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) signaling pathway was confirmed using western blot analysis. Following the treatment of hPDLSCs with LPS, the expression levels of microRNA-671-5p in hPDLSCs were increased, cell viability decreased, and the expression of inflammatory factors displayed an increasing trend. MicroRNA-671-5p targets and binds to DUSP8. Silencing microRNA-671-5p or overexpressing DUSP8 can improve cell survival rate and reduce inflammatory responses. When DUSP8 was overexpressed, the expression of p-p38 was reduced.

conclusionsmicroRNA-671-5p targets DUSP8/p38 MAPK pathway to regulate LPS-induced proliferation and inflammation in hPDLSCs.
