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

objectivesSS is characterized by chronic inflammation of the salivary glands leading to loss of secretory function, thereby suggesting specialized pro-resolving mediators targeting inflammation to be a viable option for treating SS. Previous studies demonstrated that aspirin-triggered resolvin D1 (AT-RvD1) prevents chronic inflammation and enhances saliva secretion in a SS-like mouse model when applied before disease onset. However, this therapy cannot be used in SS patients given that diagnosis occurs post-disease onset and no reliable screening methods exist. Therefore, we examined whether treatment with AT-RvD1 reduces SS-like features in a mouse model post-disease onset.

methodsTail vein injections were performed in a SS-like mouse model both with and without AT-RvD1 post-disease onset for 8 weeks, with salivary gland function and inflammatory status subsequently determined.

resultsTreatment of a SS-like mouse model with AT-RvD1 post-disease onset restores saliva secretion in both females and males. Moreover, although AT-RvD1 treatment does not reduce the overall submandibular gland lymphocytic infiltration, it does reduce the number of T helper 17 cells within the infiltrates in both sexes. Finally, AT-RvD1 reduces SS-associated pro-inflammatory cytokine gene and protein expression levels in submandibular glands from female but not male mice.

conclusionAT-RvD1 treatment administered post-disease onset reduces T helper 17 cells and successfully restores salivary gland function in a SS mouse model with variable effects noted by sex, thus warranting further examination of both the causes for the sex differences and the mechanisms responsible for the observed treatment effect.
