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

objectiveTo investigate the effect of type 2 dengue virus (DENV-2) infection on autophagy in human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) and the mechanism mediating the inhibitory effect of baicalin against DENV-2 infection.

methodsCultured HUVECs with DENV-2 infection were treated with different concentrations of baicalin, and the changes in autophagy of the cells were detected using transmission electron microscopy. Lyso Tracker Red staining was used to examine pH changes in the lysosomes of the cells, and the expressions of ATG5, beclin-1, LC3, P62, STX17, SNAP29, VAMP8, and PI3K/AKT signaling pathway-related proteins were detected by Western blotting. DENV-2 replication in the cells were evaluated using RT-qPCR. The differentially expressed proteins in DENV-2-infected HUVECs were identified by proteomics screening.

resultsTreatment with baicalin did not significantly affect the viability of cultured HUVECs. Proteomic studies suggested that the PI3K-AKT pathway played an important role in mediating cell injury induced by DENV-2 infection. The results of RT-qPCR demonstrated that baicalin dose-dependently inhibited DENV-2 replication in HUVECs and produced the strongest inhibitory effect at the concentration of 50 μg/mL. Transmission electron microscopy, Lyso Tracker Red staining, RT-qPCR, and Western blotting all showed significant inhibitory effect of baicalin on DENV-2-induced autophagy in HUVECs. DENV-2 infection of HUVECs caused increased cellular expressions of LC3 and P62 proteins, which were significantly lowered by treatment with LY294002 (a PI3K inhibitor).

conclusionBaicalin inhibits DENV-2 replication in HUVECs and suppresses DENV-2-induced cell autophagy by inhibiting the PI3K/AKT signaling pathway.
