Itraconazole antagonizes store-operated influx of calcium into chemoattractant-activated human neutrophils.
Article in Clinical and experimental immunology, 2004. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
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
We have investigated the effects of itraconazole (0.1-10 micro m), an antimycotic which is often used prophylactically in primary and secondary immunodeficiency disorders, including chronic granulomatous disease, on mobilization of Ca(2+) and restoration of Ca(2+) homeostasis following activation of neutrophils with FMLP or PAF. Transmembrane fluxes of Ca(2+), as well as cytosolic concentrations of the cation were measured using a combination of spectrofluorimetric and radiometric procedures. The abruptly occurring increases in cytosolic Ca(2+) following activation of the cells with either FMLP (1 micro m) or PAF (200 nm) were unaffected by itraconazole. However, the subsequent store-operated influx of the cation was attenuated by itraconazole at concentrations of 0.25 micro m and higher. The itraconazole-mediated inhibition of uptake of Ca(2+) was not associated with detectable alterations in the intracellular concentrations of cyclic AMP, ATP or inositol triphosphate, and appeared to be compatible with antagonism of store-operated Ca(2+) channels. Although a secondary property, this anti-inflammatory activity of itraconazole, if operative in vivo, may be beneficial in conditions associated with dysregulation of neutrophil Ca(2+) handling such as CGD.
