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 common life-threatening lung disease, which is mostly associated with severe inflammatory responses and oxidative stress. Tanreqing injection (TRQ), a Chinese patent medicine, is clinically used for respiratory-related diseases. However, the effects and action mechanism of TRQ on ALI are still unclear. Recently, STING as a cytoplasmic DNA sensor has been found to be related to the progress of ALI. Here, we showed that TRQ significantly inhibited LPS-induced lung histological change, lung edema, and inflammatory cell infiltration. Moreover, TRQ markedly reduced inflammatory mediators release (TNF-α, IL-6, IL-1β, and IFN-β). Furthermore, TRQ also alleviated oxidative stress, manifested by increased SOD and GSH activities and decreased 4-HNE, MDA, LDH, and ROS activities. In addition, we further found that TRQ significantly prevented cGAS, STING, P-TBK, P-P65, P-IRF3, and P-IκBα expression in ALI mice. And we also confirmed that TRQ could inhibit mtDNA release and suppress signaling pathway mediated by STING
