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

Integrin activation resulting in enhanced adhesion to the extracellular matrix plays a key role in fundamental cellular processes. Although integrin activation has been extensively studied in circulating cells such as leukocytes and platelets, much less is known about the regulation and functional impact of integrin activation in adherent cells such as smooth muscle. Here, we show that two different asthmagenic cytokines, IL-13 and IL-17A, activate type I and IL-17 cytokine receptor families, respectively, to enhance adhesion of airway smooth muscle. These cytokines also induce activation of β1 integrins detected by the conformation-specific antibody HUTS-4. Moreover, HUTS-4 binding is increased in the smooth muscle of patients with asthma compared to nonsmokers without lung disease, suggesting a disease-relevant role for integrin activation in smooth muscle. Indeed, integrin activation induced by the β1-activating antibody TS2/16, the divalent cation manganese, or the synthetic peptide β1-CHAMP that forces an extended-open integrin conformation dramatically enhances force transmission in smooth muscle cells and airway rings even in the absence of cytokines. We demonstrate that cytokine-induced activation of β1 integrins is regulated by a common pathway of NF-κB-mediated induction of RhoA and its effector Rho kinase, which in turn stimulates PIP5K1γ-mediated synthesis of PIP
