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

Virulent Bordetella pertussis strains survive intracellularly within human polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMN), at least in part because of inhibition of phagosome-lysosome fusion (L. L. Steed, M. Setareh, and R. L. Friedman, J. Leukocyte Biol. 50:321-330, 1991). Further investigations were done to determine if B. pertussis also inhibited respiratory burst activity of PMN as an additional mechanism of intracellular survival. Chemiluminescence and flow cytometry assays showed that B. pertussis induced significant levels of hydrogen peroxide production. In contrast, ferricytochrome c reduction showed that B. pertussis suppressed extracellular release of superoxide. PMN intracellular reduction of nitroblue tetrazolium verified that superoxide was indeed produced intracellularly during B. pertussis phagocytosis. Therefore, B. pertussis does not inhibit production of superoxide but inhibits only its release. Thus, while phagosome-lysosome fusion is inhibited by B. pertussis, respiratory burst activity of PMN occurs at normal levels.
