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

Association between staphylococcal infection and pathogenesis of upper airways disease has been reported. This study aimed to investigate the mechanisms underlying the rat pulmonary inflammation induced by airway exposure to staphylococcal enterotoxin A (SEA). SEA (0.3-10 ng trachea(-1)) caused dose-dependent neutrophil accumulation in BAL fluid, reaching maximal responses at 4 h (25-fold increase for 3 ng trachea(-1)). Significant accumulation of both lymphocytes and macrophages in BAL fluid was also observed at 4 h (2.1- and 1.9-fold increase, respectively, for 3 ng trachea(-1)). At later times (16 h), neutrophil counts in bone marrow (immature forms) and peripheral blood increased by 63 and 81%, respectively. SEA failed to directly induce chemotaxis and adhesion of isolated neutrophils. Analysis of mRNA expression for iNOS, COX-2 and CINC-2 in lung tissue showed an upregulation of these enzymes, which paralleled elevated levels of LTB4, PGE2, TNF-alpha, IL-6 and NO2- in BAL fluid. Expression of CINC-1 was unchanged, whereas CINC-3 was reduced in SEA-treated rats. Incubation of isolated alveolar macrophages with SEA (3 microg ml(-1)) resulted in significant elevations of TNF-alpha and NO2- levels in the cell supernatants. Dexamethasone (0.5 mg kg(-1)), celecoxib (3 mg kg(-1)) and compound 1400 W (5 mg kg(-1)) markedly reduced SEA-induced lung neutrophil influx and NO2- levels in BAL fluid. The lipoxygenase inhibitor AA-861 (100 microg kg(-1)) partly inhibited the neutrophil influx in SEA-treated rats without modifying the NO2- levels. None of these treatments reduced the number of mononuclear cells in BAL fluid (except of dexamethasone, which abolished the increased lymphocyte counts). Our study shows that airways exposure to SEA results in marked neutrophil influx through mechanisms involving increased expressions of CINC-2, iNOS and COX-2, as well as enhanced production of NO, PGE2, LTB4, TNF-alpha and IL-6.
