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

Sepsis-associated liver injury (SALI) plays a major role in aggravating disease progression and worsening prognosis in patients with sepsis. Macrophage polarization is a key factor in the modulation of SALI progression. Recent studies have shown that human breast milk-derived exosomes (HBM-Exos) regulate processes involved in macrophage polarization. Here, we investigated the function and mechanism of action of HBM-Exos in a macrophage polarization model of SALI. The extracted HBM-Exos were identified by morphological analysis and detection of marker proteins using flow cytometry. Human Kupffer cells were treated with lipopolysaccharide (LPS) to simulate macrophage polarization in SALI. Cell viability was measured using a CCK-8 kit. Protein and gene expression levels were evaluated using western blotting and RT-qPCR, respectively. ELISA kits were used to assess the levels of inflammatory cytokines. The interactions between FP671120.4, ELAV Like RNA binding protein 1 (ELAVL1), and nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) were verified by RIP analysis. HBM-Exos inhibited M1 macrophage polarization by promoting Nrf2 expression and phosphorylation via activation of the Nrf2/Heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) signaling pathway in LPS-induced Kupffer cells. Furthermore, FP671120.4 reversed the HBM-Exos-mediated increase in Nrf2 mRNA stability. HBM-Exos-derived FP671120.4 enhanced the interaction between ELAVL1 and Nrf2. As a result, FP671120.4 inhibited M1 polarization by inducing Nrf2 expression via activation of the Nrf2/HO-1 pathway. These findings suggest that HBM-Exos-derived FP671120.4 may inhibit M1 macrophage polarization through the ELVAL1/Nrf2/HO-1 signaling pathway in LPS-induced Kupffer cells.
