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

Dendritic cell-lysosomal associated membrane protein (DC-LAMP)/CD208, a member of the lysosomal associated membrane protein (LAMP) family, is specifically expressed by human DCs on activation. However, its mouse counterpart could not be detected in mature DCs. The present study demonstrates that DC-LAMP is constitutively expressed by mouse, sheep, and human type II pneumocytes. Confocal and immunoelectron microscopy showed that mouse DC-LAMP protein co-localizes with lbm180, a specific marker for the limiting membrane of lamellar bodies that contain surfactant protein B, as well as with intracellular MHC class II molecules that accumulate in the same organelles. Expression of DC-LAMP was also occasionally detected at the cell surface of type II pneumocytes. Interestingly, human bronchioloalveolar carcinoma tumor cells, which correspond to transformed type II pneumocytes, express DC-LAMP. Similar observations were made in the Jaagsiekte sheep retrovirus-associated ovine pulmonary adenocarcinoma, a model of human bronchioloalveolar carcinoma. This study establishes that DC-LAMP is constitutively expressed in normal type II pneumocytes. Furthermore, DC-LAMP appears to be a marker of transformed type II pneumocytes as well, an observation that may help the study and the classification of human lung adenocarcinomas.
