Human cell-based anti-inflammatory effects of rosiglitazone.
Article in Journal of endocrinological investigation, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 papers.
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.
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
purposeThe C-X-C motif chemokine ligand 10 (CXCL10) participates in diabetes and diabetic cardiomyopathy development from the early stages. Rosiglitazone (RGZ) exhibits anti-inflammatory properties and can target cardiomyocytes secreting CXCL10, under interferon (IFN)γ and tumor necrosis factor (TNF)α challenge. Cardiomyocyte remodeling, CD4 + T cells and dendritic cells (DCs) significantly contribute to the inflammatory milieu underlying and promoting disease development. We aimed to study the effect of RGZ onto inflammation-induced secretion of CXCL10, IFNγ, TNFα, interleukin (IL)-6 and IL-8 by human CD4 + T and DCs, and onto IFNγ/TNFα-dependent signaling in human cardiomyocytes associated with chemokine release.
methodsCells maintained within an inflammatory-like microenvironment were exposed to RGZ at near therapy dose (5 µM). ELISA quantified cytokine secretion; qPCR measured mRNA expression; Western blot analyzed protein expression and activation; immunofluorescent analysis detected intracellular IFNγ/TNFα-dependent trafficking.
resultsIn human CD4 + T cells and DCs, RGZ inhibited CXCL10 release likely with a transcriptional mechanism, and reduced TNFα only in CD4 + T cells. In human cardiomyocytes, RGZ impaired IFNγ/TNFα signal transduction, blocking the phosphorylation/nuclear translocation of signal transducer and activator of transcription 1 (Stat1) and nuclear factor-kB (NF-kB), in association with a significant decrease in CXCL10 expression, IL-6 and IL-8 release.
conclusionAs the combination of Th1 biomarkers like CXCL10, IL-8, IL-6 with classical cardiovascular risk factors seems to improve the accuracy in predicting T2D and coronary events, future studies might be desirable to further investigate the anti-Th1 effect of RGZ.
