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

Biological activities of a putative mature sea bass interleukin-1beta peptide, produced as a recombinant protein (rIL-1beta) in Escherichia coli, have been investigated. The rIL-1beta contains a 6-histidine tag at the N-terminus, and protein purification has been achieved through this tag by affinity chromatography. Biological activities have been investigated both at the cellular and gene expression levels. In in vitro assays sea bass rIL-1beta induced the proliferation of murine D10.G4.1 cells and increased yeast phagocytosis by sea bass head kidney leukocytes. The purified cytokine was also tested in a lymphocyte-activation factor assay, where it induced the proliferation of sea bass thymocytes. Finally, in an in vivo assay, rIL-1beta administered intraperitoneally increased expression levels of the IL-1beta gene and activated macrophages to produce a cyclooxygenase 2 homologue (COX-2) gene in the head kidney.
