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

backgroundNo effective treatment strategy for acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) has been established. Conflicting reports on the effects of insulin-like growth factor (IGF)-1 stimulation and the inhibition of IGF-1 receptor (IGF-1R) signalling in tissue injury across several organs have led to hesitation in advancing IGF-1-based treatment strategies for tissue damage.

objectiveWe aim to examine whether IGF-1/IGF-1R signalling contributes to recovery from acute lung injury in mouse models and to further explore its potential mechanisms.

methodsLipopolysaccharide (LPS) was intratracheally injected into mice to create acute lung injury models. Experiments were conducted to acquire or inhibit IGF-1 signalling through the intratracheal injection of recombinant IGF-1 or JB1, an IGF-1 receptor antagonist during the recovery phase of the models, starting on day 4 after LPS administration. Bone marrow monocyte-derived macrophages (MDMs) cocultured with IGF-1 and/or JB1 were intratracheally injected during the recovery phase.

resultsInflammatory cell counts and lung injury scores were significantly decreased when recombinant IGF-1 was administered in the later phase, while they increased with the administration of JB1. On day 4 after LPS injection, IGF-1 receptor (IGF-1R, also known as CD221) was strongly expressed on macrophages, particularly in CD11c

conclusionIGF-1/IGF-1R signalling in macrophage facilitates the recovery from acute lung injury
