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

The mononuclear phagocyte system (MPS) is responsible for the elimination of foreign material, effete autologous material and immune complexes. To study the relationship between MPS function and human disease, several test substances have been developed, and used to determine the clearance capacity of the MPS in human subjects in vivo. These test substances and the multitude of factors that influence the elimination of these substances (and complicate the interpretation of the test results) are discussed. Use of these probes has provided important new insights, that may lead to the development of treatment modalities by which MPS function is modified in order to influence disease processes more effectively.
