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

Mast cells have recently been found to be a major player in the host defence against bacterial infection through secretion of potent mediators. Identification of bacteria-induced mast cell mediators and intracellular signalling molecules involved during bacterial infection remains a major area of investigation. Recently we found an active interaction between mast cells and Pseudomonas aeruginosa bacteria. To further characterize specific genes in mast cells modulated by P. aeruginosa, we used a new approach for the study of mast cell-bacteria interaction; the suppression subtractive hybridization (SSH). SSH approach does not require a prerequisite knowledge of target genes and does not rely on the availability of the assay reagents for the specific genes. Using SSH, 94 clones were randomly selected from the subtracted cDNA library for differential screening leading to the identification of 14 P. aeruginosa-up-regulated transcripts. Sequence analysis revealed that expression of IL-1, IL-8 and CCL4 was increased by human mast cells after P. aeruginosa infection. Increased production of IL-1, IL-8 and CCL4 was confirmed at the protein levels. In addition, sequence analysis of the clones also suggests that ribosomal protein S3 and cytochrome b as well as additional 4 uncharacterized genes may potentially be involved in P. aeruginosa pathogenesis. Thus, SSH is an effective approach by identifying potential molecular targets for the study of mechanisms involved in P. aeruginosa and mast cell interaction.
