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

Background: The high mortality rate of severe heat stroke is mainly related to multiple organ dysfunction syndrome (MODS), and respiratory failure caused by acute lung injury (ALI) is a significant factor in the development of MODS during the course of severe heat stroke. Previous research has demonstrated that severe heat stroke-induced acute lung injury (sHS-ALI) is associated with an increase in reactive oxygen species (ROS) in vascular endothelial cells (VECs), but the specific initiating factors and intermediate mechanisms involved are unclear. Methods: In this study, the mRNA profiles of mouse lung tissues were analysed using high-throughput sequencing. Genome-wide knockout was performed using CRISPR-Cas9 technology to identify a cohort of differentially expressed genes that promote human umbilical vein endothelial cells survival after heat stress. The expression of key proteins [fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23), phosphorylated fibroblast growth factor receptor-1 (p-FGFR-1), FGFR-1, phosphorylated phospholipase C-γ2 (p-PLC-γ2), PLC-γ2, p-p47 Results: In this study, we first screened sHS-ALI target genes by cross-comparison Conclusions: This study confirmed that FGF23/FGFR1 signalling, as an upstream priming factor, mediated NOX2-ROS activation in VECs after heat stress, thus participating in the sHS-ALI process. FGFR-1 Y766 phosphorylation is essential for FGF23/FGFR-1 signalling activation in VECs, which is involved in sHS-ALI. These findings further clarify the mechanism underlying sHS-ALI and contribute to reducing the mortality and morbidity of severe heat stroke.
