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

Prostaglandins (PGs) are eicosanoid compounds with various hormone-like effects within the human body. Prostaglandin D2 (PGD2), prostaglandin J2 (PGJ2, a metabolite of PGD2), and prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) are common prostaglandins. They are produced from arachidonic acid by cyclooxygenase isoenzymes (COX-1 and COX-2) and PG synthases and are involved in many biological metabolisms, including the inflammatory response. Recent studies show PGs are mediators for both proinflammatory and anti-inflammatory processes. In systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), inflammation caused by autoimmunity damages tissues, leading to organ diseases such as lupus nephritis and lupus myocarditis. However, the roles of different types of PGs in the pathogenesis of SLE remain unclear. In this review, we discuss three types of PGs-PGD2, PGJ2, and PGE2-for their potential roles in SLE pathogenesis.
