MFG-E8 alleviates intervertebral disc degeneration by suppressing pyroptosis and extracellular matrix degradation in nucleus pulposus cells via Nrf2/TXNIP/NLRP3 axis.
Article in Cell death discovery, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 44 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
Intervertebral disc degeneration (IVDD) is a chronic age-related degenerative disease accompanied by complex pathophysiological mechanisms. Increasing evidence indicates that NLRP3 inflammasome mediated pyroptosis of nucleus pulposus (NP) cells displays an important role in the pathological progression of IVDD. Milk fat globule-EGF factor-8 (MFG-E8) is an endogenously secreted glycoprotein with beneficial effects of anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and modulation of NLRP3 inflammasome. However, the effect of MFG-E8 on IVDD remains unclear. In this study, our purpose is to clarify the expression changes of MFG-E8 in the IVDD process and explore the role and mechanism of MFG-E8. We found that MFG-E8's expression was reduced in degraded nucleus pulposus tissues of humans and rats as well as hydrogen peroxide (H
