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

Interleukin-8 (IL-8), a CXC chemokine, has a central role in leukocyte recruitment to areas of granuloma formation in tuberculosis. In the present studies, we investigated the effect of the T(H)2-derived cytokines IL-4, IL-10, and IL-13 on Mycobacterium tuberculosis-induced IL-8 secretion from purified human monocytes. Our results demonstrate that IL-4 and IL-10 have a down-regulatory effect on IL-8 secretion and that this effect is dose dependent. IL-10 has a greater effect than IL-4 on secretion, and autologous IL-10 secreted from M. tuberculosis-infected monocytes also down-regulates IL-8 secretion. The down-regulatory effect is partly a result of reduced IL-8 mRNA accumulation analyzed by reverse transcription-PCR. When combined, 1 microM IL-4 and IL-10 had an additive effect in decreasing IL-8 secretion and transcription; there was no synergy of action. IL-13 did not have any significant effect on IL-8 gene expression or secretion. The inhibitory effect of IL-10 but not of IL-4 is associated with decreased nuclear binding of the key activating transcription factor NF-kappaB. We show for the first time that M. tuberculosis causes up-regulation of nuclear binding of Oct-1 detected by electromobility gel shift assay. However, neither AP-1 nor Oct-1 nuclear binding was altered by IL-4 or IL-10. In summary, this study demonstrates that type 2 responses have an important role in the regulation of M. tuberculosis-induced IL-8 expression but that the mechanisms by which the different cytokines act are distinct.
