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

Lipoproteinassociated phospholipase A2 (Lp-PLA2), encoded by the phospholipase A2 group VII (Pla2g7) gene, has been pertinent to inflammatory responses. This study investigates the correlation between Lp-PLA2 and inflammatory injury in septic mice and explores its regulatory mechanism. Lp-PLA2 was found to be upregulated in the serum of septic mice induced by cecal ligation and puncture and in the culture supernatant of RAW264.7 cells following lipopolysaccharide and adenosine triphosphate treatments. The contents of Lp-PLA2 were positively correlated with increased concentrations of proinflammatory cytokines in patients with sepsis. Both animal and cellular models showed increased concentrations of proinflammatory cytokines. Spi-1 proto-oncogene (Spi1), highly expressed in these models, was found to activate Pla2g7 transcription. Knockdown of Pla2g7 or Spi1 reduced the proinflammatory cytokine production, mitigated organ damage in mice, and suppressed macrophage migration in vitro. Retinoblastoma binding protein 6 (Rbbp6), poorly expressed in both models, was found to reduce Spi1 protein stability through ubiquitination modification. Rbbp6 overexpression similarly suppressed inflammatory activation of RAW264.7 cells, which was counteracted by Pla2g7 or Spi1 upregulation. In summary, this study demonstrates that the Pla2g7 loss and Spi1 upregulation participate in inflammatory responses in sepsis by elevating the Lp-PLA2 levels.
