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

As a recognized common and severe chronic disease predominantly affecting preterm infants, bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) necessitates meticulous clinical management. Emerging evidence has thoroughly elucidated the role of complex subunit 4 (GINS4) in lung carcinogenesis. Nevertheless, the specific molecular mechanisms underlying GINS4' potential involvement in BPD pathogenesis remain underexplored and require systematic investigation. In this study, we proved that GINS4 expression was significantly upregulated in hyperoxia-induced lung injury. Additionally, in a hyperoxia-induced BPD neonatal rat model, GINS4 was found to upregulate the expression of inflammatory cytokines, including interleukin-6 (IL-6), interleukin-1β (IL-1β), interleukin-18 (IL-18), interferon-γ (IFN-γ), and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-ɑ), concomitantly increasing myeloperoxidase (MPO) activity. Histopathological analyses via Giemsa staining and hematoxylin-eosin (H&E) staining further revealed that GINS4 promoted alveolarization in this experimental context. Analysis of Aquaporin 5 (AQP5) and surfactant-associated protein C (SPC) indicated GINS4 exerted differential effects on alveolar development. Notably, GINS4 was found to directly interact with p65, thereby promoting phosphorylation and acetylation of the p65 NF-κB. Finally, in a preterm rat model, we demonstrate that GINS4 induced BPD-like pathological alterations in lung tissues, characterized by alveolar septal simplification and thickening. Collectively, this study identifies GINS4 as a potential novel therapeutic target for prevention and treatment of BPD.
