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

Sepsis-induced lung injury (ALI) is a critical condition characterized by excessive immune responses and tissue damage. Previous evidence has underscored an upregulation pattern of DNA methyltransferase 1 (DNMT1) in sepsis. This study reveals the key role of DNMT1 in modulating regulatory T cell (Treg) activity in septic ALI. A septic mouse model was generated through cecal ligation and puncture. Treatment with either DNMT1 antagonist Thioguanine (ThG) or AAV-sh-DNMT1 significantly reduced immune cell infiltration, reduced production of pro-inflammatory cytokines, and increasing production of anti-inflammatory cytokines in the bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) of mice, alongside improved lung pathology and integrity. Furthermore, the DNMT1 inhibition or silencing significantly enhanced population of FOXP3
