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

The RNA-binding protein DDX3X is associated with several biological processes including inflammation and immunity. However, the role of DDX3X in the pathology of inflammation-related osteoarthritis (OA) remains unclear. This study was to explore the action of DDX3X in the progression of OA as well as the underlying mechanisms by using RNA immunoprecipitation (RIP), Immunohistochemical (IHC) and DDX3X knockout mice, etc. We found that DDX3X expression was upregulated in cartilage tissue of OA patient. The in vitro study also showed upregulation of DDX3X in the inflammatory chondrocytes stimulated by LPS. DDX3X overexpression reduced cell viability by inducing pyroptosis in chondrocytes. Knockdown of DDX3X rescued LPS-induced chondrocytes pyroptosis through regulating NLRP3 signaling. In addition, DDX3X deletion attenuates osteoarthritis in vivo. In conclusion, DDX3X promotes OA progression by regulating chondrocytes pyroptosis via the activation of NLRP3 signaling.
