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

Recruitment of polymorphonuclear leucocytes (PMN) across the intestinal epithelium is dependent on specific adhesion molecules and chemoattractants diffusing from the intestinal lumen. The present understanding is that in response to fMLP, PMN migration across a T84 colon carcinoma monolayer is dependent on the beta(2) integrin, Mac-1 (CD11b/CD18). To further understand PMN transepithelial migration, we sought to determine whether migration to C5a, IL-8 and LTB(4) was similarly Mac-1-, or even CD18-dependent. T84 epithelial cell monolayers growing on Transwell filters were used in combination with radiolabelled peripheral blood PMN. The number of migrated PMN was established by the amount of radioactivity recovered from the well after the migration period. Monoclonal antibodies were used to block integrin function. Whereas essentially all migration to fMLP across T84 monolayers was prevented by anti-CD18 antibody, significant migration to C5a, IL-8 or LTB(4) persisted despite anti-CD18 antibody, indicating PMN are capable of beta(2) integrin-independent transepithelial migration. An antibody to CD11b but not CD11a blocked migration to an extent similar as with anti-CD18. CD18-independent PMN migration to C5a occurred only in the basolateral-to-apical direction across epithelial cells. Co-stimulation of PMN with C5a and fMLP or IL-8 plus LTB(4) and fMLP still resulted in CD18-independent migration. Thus CD18 use during PMN migration across this model epithelium is a function of the chemoattractant inducing migration. The finding of CD18-independent migration mechanisms needs to be considered when developing antiadhesion molecule strategies to reduce or reverse intestinal inflammation.
