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.

Abstract

CD14, a GPI-linked membrane protein, is a component of the lipopolysaccharide (LPS) receptor complex, one of the pattern-recognizing receptors (PRR) expressed by myeloid lineage cells. Here we report that CD14, the functionally linked toll-like receptor molecules, TLR2 and TLR4, and the associated molecule MD-2 are expressed in endocrine cells of the human pancreatic islets. CD14 expression in human pancreatic islets was determined by immunofluorescence staining of tissue sections and primary cultures, and confirmed by flow cytometry of dispersed normal islets and SV40-transformed islet cells (HP62). The latter cells synthesized and secreted CD14 in response to lipopolysaccharide (LPS) in a time- and dose-dependent manner. Reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR)-Southern was positive for CD14, TLR2, TLR4 and MD-2 in human pancreas, purified islets and HP62 cells. In vitro experiments using rat islets (also positive for CD14 by RT-PCR) and HP62 cells showed that LPS regulates glucose-dependent insulin secretion and induces inflammatory cytokines [interleukin (IL)-1alpha, IL-6 and tumour necrosis factor (TNF)-alpha]. The functional expression of CD14 and associated molecules in islet beta cells adds a new pathway that islet cells may follow to adjust their function to endotoxaemia situations and become vulnerable to the inflammatory events that occur during diabetogenic insulitis.
