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

Differences in gene expression between Pneumocystis carinii-infected and noninfected rats were examined. Total RNA was isolated from homogenized rat lungs and then subjected to differential display with combinations of oligo(dT) and various arbitrary PCR primers. Approximately 50 differentially expressed bands were observed. Several of these DNA bands were isolated, reamplified, and cloned. The cloned DNA fragments were used as probes to perform Northern hybridization on RNA from P. carinii-infected and noninfected rat lungs. One clone was found to react with a 3-kb mRNA from noninfected but not from P. carinii-infected rat lung, suggesting that the gene represented by this clone was down-regulated during P. carinii infection. The nucleotide sequence of this clone was determined and found to be 97% homologous to the mouse GATA-2 transcription factor. In situ hybridization using RNA probes derived from this clone revealed that alveolar macrophages, resident lung monocytes, and bronchial epithelial cells express the GATA-2 gene in the lung.
