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

backgroundFatty acid oxidation (FAO) is implicated in lung diseases, but its role in bronchial asthma is not fully understood. We investigated its effect on airway epithelial barrier integrity.

methodsUsing a house dust mite (HDM)-induced murine asthma model and HDM, IL-4, IL-13, or TNF-α stimulated human primary bronchial epithelial cells (BECs) and bronchial epithelial (Beas-2b) cells, we modulated FAO with L-carnitine (agonist) and Etomoxir (inhibitor). BECs and Beas-2b cells were infected with lentivirus-mediated

resultsFAO level in lungs negatively correlated with increased inflammation and tissue injury in HDM-induced asthmatic mice (all

conclusionFAO plays a protective role in the occurrence and development of asthma by maintaining airway epithelial cell homeostasis and barrier function.
