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

Atherosclerosis is a lipid-driven chronic inflammatory disease that is widespread in the walls of large and medium-sized arteries. Its pathogenesis is not fully understood. The currently known pathogenesis includes activation of pro-inflammatory signaling pathways in the body, increased oxidative stress, and increased expression of cytokines/chemokines. In the innate immune response, inflammatory vesicles are an important component with the ability to promote the expression and maturation of inflammatory factors, release large amounts of inflammatory cytokines, trigger a cascade of inflammatory responses, and clear pathogens and damaged cells. Studies in the last few years have demonstrated that NLRP3 inflammatory vesicles play a crucial role in the development of atherosclerosis as well as its complications. Several studies have shown that NLRP3 binding to ligands promotes inflammasome formation, activates caspase-1, and ultimately promotes its maturation and the maturation and production of IL-1β and IL-18. IL-1β and IL-18 are considered to be the two most prominent inflammatory cytokines in the inflammasome that promote the development of atherosclerosis. SGLT2 inhibitors are novel hypoglycemic agents that also have significant antiatherosclerotic effects. However, their exact mechanism is not yet clear. This article is a review of the literature on the effects and mechanisms of SGLT2 inhibitors on the NLRP3 inflammasome, focusing on their role in antiatherosclerosis.
