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.
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
The inhibition of formyl-methionyl-leucyl-phenylalanine (fMLP)-induced respiratory burst by 2',5'-dihydroxy-2-furfurylchalcone (DHFC) was investigated in rat neutrophils, and the underlying mechanism of this inhibition was assessed. DHFC concentration-dependently inhibited superoxide anion (O(2)) generation (IC(50) 4.2+/-1.2 microM), reaching a plateau within 5-10 min preincubation time, and inhibited oxygen consumption (IC(50) 6.9+/-1.9 microM) in rat neutrophils. In cell-free systems, DHFC failed to scavenge the generated during dihydroxyfumaric acid auto-oxidation. DHFC was less effective in the inhibition of both phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate-activated neutrophil particulate NADPH oxidase activity and arachidonic acid-induced NADPH oxidase activation. In rat neutrophils, DHFC did not exert a cAMP-elevating effect, nor did it affect fMLP-induced [Ca(2+)](i) change to a considerable extent. DHFC slightly reduced fMLP-induced phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3 K) activation but showed moderate inhibition of Akt phosphorylation. fMLP-induced cellular phospholipase D (PLD) activation was markedly inhibited by DHFC (IC(50) 8.9+/-2.0 microM). In addition, DHFC effectively attenuated the membrane association of protein kinase C (PKC)-alpha, ADP-ribosylation factor (ARF) and Rho A in fMLP-stimulated cells. However, DHFC had no effect on the membrane association of ARF and Rho A caused by guanosine 5'-[gamma-thio]triphosphate (GTPgammaS) in cell lysate. fMLP-stimulated protein tyrosine phosphorylation was weakly attenuated by DHFC. DHFC was more efficient in the inhibition of extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) phosphorylation than p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) phosphorylation. Collectively, these results indicate that the suppression of fMLP-induced respiratory burst by DHFC in rat neutrophils is probably mainly attributable to the inhibition of PLD activation, via the blockade of PKC-alpha, ARF and Rho A membrane association.
