Apurinic/apyrimidinic endonuclease 1 alleviates inflammation in fibroblast-like synoviocytes from patients with rheumatoid arthritis.
Article in Central-European journal of immunology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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.
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
Introduction: Apurinic/apyrimidinic endonuclease 1 (APEX1) is a protein with elevated expression in synovial fluids from rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients. However, its role in RA pathogenesis remains unexplored. This study investigated the influence of APEX1 on inflammatory pathways in fibroblast-like synoviocytes (FLS) isolated from RA patients. Material and methods: FLS from RA patients (n = 5) were stimulated with recombinant tumor necrosis factor Results: The results demonstrated that APEX1 significantly reduced mitochondrial-specific ROS expression and restored mitochondrial membrane potential in TNF- Conclusions: These findings collectively underscore the role of APEX1 as a key mediator of cytokine-amplified migration, modulating ROS and MMP3 in RA FLS, thus supporting its potential as a therapeutic target in RA treatment.
