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

Legionella pneumophila is an intracellular pathogen that modulates the biogenesis of its phagosome to evade endocytic vesicle traffic. The Legionella-containing phagosome (LCP) does not acquire any endocytic markers and is remodeled by the endoplasmic reticulum during early stages. Here we show that intracellular replication of L. pneumophila is inhibited in gamma interferon (IFN-gamma)-activated, bone marrow-derived mouse macrophages and IFN-gamma-activated, human monocyte-derived macrophages in a dose-dependent manner. This inhibition of intracellular replication is associated with the maturation of the LCP into a phagolysosome, as documented by the acquisition of LAMP-2, cathepsin D, and lysosomal tracer Texas Red ovalbumin, and with the failure of the LCP to be remodeled by the rough endoplasmic reticulum. We conclude that IFN-gamma-activated macrophages override the ability of L. pneumophila to evade endocytic fusion and that the LCP is processed through the "default" endosomal-lysosomal degradation pathway.
