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 &

aimsHypertrophy of mesenteric adipose tissue (MAT) and formation of creeping fat (CF) is a typical hallmark of Crohn's disease (CD). MAT of CD patients exhibited disturbed oxylipin metabolism. This study aimed to explore the role of oxylipin in modulating gut inflammation and the underlying mechanism for the regulation of oxylipin metabolism.

methodsMAT biopsies were recruited from 14 patients with CD and 12 controls, and oxylipin analysis was performed. A series of in vitro and in vivo experiments were conducted to explore the effect of oxylipin and the corresponding metabolic enzymes on shaping immune cells. Western blot, quantitative polymerase chain reaction (q-PCR) and immunofluorescence were performed to further verify the underlying mechanisms.

resultsThe oxylipin assays revealed the end product derived from CYP450-epoxide hydrolase-mediated metabolic pathway was notably increased in CF. The upregulation of soluble epoxide hydrolase (sEH) contributed to the disturbance of oxylipin metabolism. Beclin-1 (BCN1) mediated autophagy of mesenteric adipocytes regulated sEH expression through p62-Keap1-Nrf2 pathway. Inhibition of BCN1 increased the downstream pro-inflammatory oxylipin concentration and promoted M1-like macrophages. The adipocyte-specific BCN1 knockout mice (Becn1

conclusionsOur findings showed that BCN1-mediated autophagy of adipocytes from MAT inhibited pro-inflammatory oxylipins via promoting sEH-related metabolic pathway, suggesting fatty acid metabolism and sEH/BCN1 as potential therapeutic targets for controlling gut inflammation in CD.
