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

1. To determine biological functions of platelet-activating factor (PAF) in chronic inflammation, we have investigated the kinetics of angiogenesis, inflammatory cells recruitment and cytokine production in sponge-induced granuloma in wild type and PAF receptor-deficient mice (PAFR-KO). 2. Angiogenesis as determined by morphometric analysis and hemoglobin content was significantly higher in the implants of PAFR-KO mice at all time points. Treatment with PAF receptor antagonist UK74505 (30 mg kg(-1)) also increased angiogenesis in sponge implants. 3. Neutrophils and macrophages accumulation, as determined by myeloperoxidase and N-acetylglucosaminidase activities in the supernatant of implanted sponges were markedly decreased in PAFR-KO mice. Surprisingly, the levels of the proinflammatory chemokines, keratinocyte-derived chemokine and chemokine monocyte chemoattractant protein 1 were higher in the implants of the transgenic animals. 4. We have shown that angiogenesis was stimulated in PAFR-KO mice whereas inflammation was decreased, indicating that PAF is an endogenous regulator of new blood vessels formation in the inflammatory microenvironment induced by the sponge implant.
