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

Production of CCR5 expression and MIP-1alpha, a ligand of CCR5, by CD4+ T cells from patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) were studied. We analysed further the influence of IL-15 stimulation, CD40/CD40 ligand (CD40L) interaction and CCR5 promotor polymorphism. One hundred and fifty-five RA patients and another 155 age- and sex-matched healthy individuals were enrolled. Peripheral CD4+ and double negative (DN) T cells from patients had lower portions of CCR5, whereas synovial CD4+ and DN T cells showed a much higher CCR5 expression. IL-15 significantly up-regulated the expression of CCR5 on purified CD4+ T cells. CD40L expression on synovial CD4+ T cells was increased greatly in CCR5+ portions by IL-15. MIP-1alpha production by synovial CD4+ T cells was also enhanced by IL-15. Co-culture of CD40 expressing synovial fibroblasts with IL-15-activated synovial CD4+ T cells significantly increased MIP-1alpha production. Expression of CCR5 on patients' CD4+ T cells was not influenced by the promotor polymorphism of CCR5 gene. Taken together, these data suggest CCR5+CD4+ T cells infiltrate the inflamed synovium and IL-15 up-regulates CCR5 and CD40L expression further and enhance MIP-1alpha production in synovial CD4+ T cells. Production of MIP-1alpha by synovial fibroblasts is significantly increased by engagement of CD40 with CD40L. Synovial microenvironment plays a potential role in regulation of CCR5+CD4+ T cells in rheumatoid joints.
