Activation of the NALP3-CASP1-IL-1 β Inflammatory Pathway by Pesticide Exposure in Human Umbilical Vein Endothelial Cells.
Article in International journal of molecular sciences, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Barrier function regulation, angiogenic potential, and immune response modulation are only a few of the many roles of the vascular system that nowadays represent one of the main targets for environmental pollutants, in particular, pesticides. We have used human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) as an in vitro model to investigate the effects of pesticides on the activation of the NALP3-CASP1-IL-1β inflammatory pathway using real time PCR (RT-PCR) and immunofluorescence investigations, reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation, and morphological alterations with scanning electron microscopy (SEM) analysis. Our findings offer a comprehensive evaluation of the cellular and molecular damage induced by pesticide exposure and show strong inflammasome activation. They indicate that these chemicals may initiate necroptosis and drive prolonged inflammation in endothelial cells. This study provides crucial insights into how pesticides contribute to endothelial dysfunction, highlighting the need for further investigation into their inflammatory and immune-modulatory effects on vascular health.
