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

We reported earlier that neonatal monocyte-derived macrophages (MDM) could not be fully activated with IFN-gamma, a finding that could not be attributed to lower expression of IFN-gamma receptors on the neonatal cells. In this study we explored elements of IFN-gamma R-mediated signalling in cord monocytes and MDM. Intracellular expression of STAT-1 was analysed by flow cytometry. We have assessed phosphorylation of STAT-1 by using MoAbs that distinguish native and phosphorylated forms of STAT-1 on a discrete cell basis. Using MoAbs against the native form of STAT-1 revealed comparable expression of this protein in cord and adult cells (both monocytes and MDM). However, STAT-1 phosphorylation in response to IFN-gamma was significantly decreased in neonatal monocytes (P < 0.05) and MDM (P < 0.01) compared to adult cells (n > 5 for each). These data suggest deficient cytokine-receptor signalling in neonatal mononuclear phagocytes exposed to IFN-gamma. We propose that decreased STAT-1 phosphorylation and activation may represent developmental immaturity and may contribute to the unique susceptibility of neonates to infections by intracellular pathogens.
