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

Hepatic parenchymal cells respond in many different ways to acute-phase cytokines. Some responses may protect against damage by liver-derived inflammatory mediators. Previous investigations have shown that cytokines cause increased secretion by hepatoma cells of soluble complement regulatory proteins, perhaps providing protection from complement attack. More important to cell protection are the membrane complement regulators. Here we examine, using flow cytometry and Northern blotting, the effects of different cytokines, singly or in combination, on expression of membrane-bound complement regulators by a hepatoma cell line. The combination of tumour necrosis factor-alpha, IL-1beta, and IL-6 caused increased expression of CD55 (three-fold) and CD59 (two-fold) and decreased expression of CD46 at day 3 post-exposure. Interferon-gamma reduced expression of CD59 and strongly antagonized the up-regulatory effects on CD59 mediated by the other cytokines. Complement attack on antibody-sensitized hepatoma cells following a 3-day incubation with the optimum combination of acute-phase cytokines revealed increased resistance to complement-mediated lysis and decreased C3b deposition. During the acute-phase response there is an increased hepatic synthesis of the majority of complement effector proteins. Simultaneous up-regulation of expression of CD55 and CD59 may serve to protect hepatocytes from high local concentrations of complement generated during the acute-phase response.
