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

Introduction: Bacterial keratitis refers to a prevalent sight-threatening ophthalmologic infection. Owing to the challenge of antimicrobial resistance in treating bacterial keratitis, novel therapeutic strategies are needed. Resolvin D1 (RvD1), an endogenous lipid mediator, exhibits anti-inflammatory and immune-regulatory effects. The present study was aimed at investigating whether RvD1 alleviates lipopolysaccharide-induced inflammation to protect corneal fibroblasts and explore its potential mechanisms. Methods: In this study, Raw264.7 cells were polarized towards M1 or M2 macrophages by the addition of lipopolysaccharides LPS or interleukin (IL)-4, respectively, and were treated with or without RvD1. Flow cytometry and Western blot were used to determine the expression of M1 and M2-related markers. EdU assay and trans-well assay were performed to detect the proliferation and migration ability of corneal fibroblasts. Bioinformatics analysis (GO and KEGG) of RNA-seq was applied to explore the RvD1-related signaling pathways. siRNA-c-Fos was further used to confirm the role of Fos expression in RvD1-mediated macrophage polarization. Flow cytometry and Western blotting analysis were performed to demonstrate that RvD1 alleviated LPS-induced inflammation by suppressing M1 macrophage polarization, facilitating M2 macrophage polarization, and increasing corneal fibroblast proliferation. Bioinformatics analysis identified PI3K-AKT, IL-17, and MAPK signaling pathways as potential targets of RvD1 in corneal inflammation. Results: Enrichment analysis indicated that the RvD1 target gene showed a strong relationship to the regulation of macrophage polarization. RvD1 highly upregulated M2 macrophages by promoting c-Fos expression and enhanced the proliferation and migration of mouse corneal fibroblasts through modulating c-Fos expression. Conclusion: Our findings reveal that RvD1 conferred protective effects against LPS-induced inflammation by enhancing M2 macrophage polarization through the promotion of c-Fos expression. Thus, RvD1 may be a potential therapeutic compound for enhancing corneal fibroblast proliferation and migration while attenuating inflammation.
