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

Acute lung injury (ALI) is a disease with an excessive inflammatory response triggered by activating the NF-κB signaling pathway. Our study aims to investigate the role of the long non-coding RNA HOTAIR in ALI-associated hyperinflammation, providing evidence for HOTAIR as a potential therapeutic target for ALI. Here, we examined the contribution of HOTAIR to LPS-induced lung injury using both A549 cell and murine models. LPS stimulation markedly increased HOTAIR expression in A549 cells, accompanied by reduced cell viability and elevated secretion of pro-inflammatory cytokines, including IL-1β, IL-6, and TNF-α. Overexpression of HOTAIR further amplified NF-κB signaling, as indicated by increased phosphorylation of IκBα and p65 and enhanced nuclear translocation of p65, whereas silencing HOTAIR effectively reversed these effects.
