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

To evaluate the levels of YKL40, IL-6(interleukin-6), IL-8(interleukin-8), IL-10(interleukin-10), TNF-α (tumor necrosis factor-α) in OSAS (obstructive sleep apnea syndrome)children and explore the mechanism of YKL40 promoting inflammatory factors overexpression in tonsils. qPCR and ELISA were used to identify the expression of YKL40, IL-6, IL-8, IL-10, and TNF-α in the tonsils of OSAS children. Primary tonsil lymphocytes (PTLCs) were cultured and recombinant human YKL40(rhYKL40)was used to stimulate PTLCs in different concentrations and at different time points. The activation of NF-κB in PTLCs was screened by western blotting. Relative mRNA of YKL40, IL-6, IL-8, TNF-α was over expressed in OSAS-derived tonsil tissue and the levels of YKL40, IL-6, IL-8, and TNF-α was increased in OSAS-derived protein supernatant of tonsil tissue.The relative mRNA expression of IL-6, IL-8 and TNF-α increased under the treatment of YKL40 (100 ng/mmol for 24 h). The phosphorylation of p65 in NF-κB pathway was stimulated in the process. The levels of YKL40, IL-6, IL-8, and TNF-α increases in OSAS children, and YKL40 promotes the overexpression of IL-6, IL-8 and TNF-α in PTLCs via NF-κB pathway. The result implements that inflammation may play an important role in the pathogenesis of OSAS in children.
