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

Current targeted therapeutics for asthma focus on the T2 immune response, providing symptomatic management without addressing the issues of recurrence. Identifying key pathophysiological determinants in airway epithelium enables novel therapeutics to prevent asthma recurrence. Here we demonstrate that TDP-43, as the master regulator of RNA metabolism, is induced in airway epithelial cells by host allergen exposure and promotes asthmatic airway responses through dampening nonsense-mediated decay (NMD) by modulating UPF1 expression, resulting in accumulation of pathogenic and NMD-sensitive transcripts including CHRM1 encoding receptor that transduces the signaling of vagally-derived neurotransmitter acetylcholine. TDP-43 also facilitates airway influenza A virus replication. Intranasal application of lipid nanoparticles carrying antisense oligonucleotides targeting TDP-43 effectively reduce asthma-like pathologies in mice. Our findings indicate that targeting airway TDP-43 is therapeutically possible for asthma and influenza A virus infection-complicated asthma exacerbations.
