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

Background: The role of Fas is crucial for preserving immunotolerance. The mechanisms and roles of Fas/FasL signaling in the immune system are well understood, but the knowledge of how this process is regulated remains limited. Fas-mediated apoptosis is a way of thyrocyte elimination and thyroid destruction in Hashimoto's thyroiditis (HT). Proinflammatory cytokines, produced abundantly by immune cells in the thyroid in HT, stimulate the expression of Fas in thyrocytes, making them susceptible to apoptosis induced by FasL on the immune cell surface. Purpose: The present study aimed to evaluate the impact of changes in Fas Methods: To induce thyrocyte apoptosis, an in vitro model was established. Cells were stimulated with IFNγ to express Fas and treated with the Results: We found that swainsonine reduces Nthy-ori 3-1 cell apoptosis, caspase 3 and 7 activity, and restores mitochondrial potential. DAPI staining showed a decreased rupture and fragmentation of Nthy-ori 3-1 cell nuclei in the presence of swainsonine. The protective effect of kifunensine was only shown in the TMRE assay and for the late apoptotic cells in annexin V Conclusion: Our study demonstrated for the first time the anti-apoptotic effect of swainsonine on follicular thyroid cell death through the Fas/FasL signaling pathway. This finding may have later applications in controlling Fas/FasL-induced thyrocyte apoptosis and preventing thyroid destruction in HT.
