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

In macrophages, the divalent cations transporter Nramp1 is recruited from the lysosomal compartment to the membrane of phagosomes formed in these cells. Nramp1 mutations cause susceptibility to infection with intracellular pathogens such as Salmonella and Mycobacterium. Intracellular survival of Salmonella involves segregation in an endomembrane compartment (Salmonella-containing vacuole, SCV) that remains negative for the mannose-6-phosphate receptor (M6PR) and that is inaccessible to the endocytic pathway. Expression of Nramp1 at the membrane of SCVs stimulates both acquisition of M6PR and accessibility to newly formed endosomes. The possible role of Nramp1-mediated iron transport on SCV maturation was investigated with membrane-permeant iron chelators. Pretreatment of primary macrophages from Nramp1 mutant mice or of RAW264.7 macrophages (from BALBc mice bearing an Nramp1(D169)-deficient allele) with either desferrioxamine or salicylaldehyde isocotinoyl hydrazone restored recruitment of M6PR and delivery of the fluid phase marker rhodamine dextran to SCVs to levels similar to those seen in macrophages expressing WT Nramp1. The effect was specific and dose-dependent and could be abrogated by preincubation with excess iron. These data suggest that Nramp1-mediated deprivation of iron and possibly of other divalent metals in macrophages antagonizes the ability of Salmonella to alter phagosome maturation.
