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

This study examines the in vitro response of human lamina propria lymphocytes (LPLs) to food antigens. LPLs were obtained from jejunum of healthy individuals undergoing gastric bypass operations for morbid obesity. Proliferation was assayed by [3H]thymidine incorporation and cytokine production by ELISA. LPLs proliferated in response to keyhole limpet hemocyanin, ovalbumin, lactoglobulin, and phytohemagglutinin (PHA), but not to yeast. The responses to lactoglobulin and PHA were inhibited by the CTLA4/Fc chimera and by MAbs against CD2, CD58, CD80, and CD86, indicating stimulation of CD28+ LPLs with antigen-presenting cells through activation of the CD2 pathway. Besides producing IL-2, IL-10, and TNF-alpha, LPLs synthesized large amounts of IFN-gamma (100 ng/ml) with lactoglobulin, a process dependent upon CD80/CD86, CD40/CD40L, and IL-12. After a three-day culture with lactoglobulin, ovalbumin, or PHA, LPLs developed suppressor activity that reduced proliferation of naive LPLs to these same stimuli. In summary, LPLs first respond to lactoglobulin by proliferation and IFN-gamma production, then by development of antigen nonspecific suppression.
