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

Many genes in the central region of the major histocompatibility complex (MHC) encode proteins involved in immune and inflammatory responses. In this study, we have further characterized two genes in the MHC class IV region, leucocyte-specific transcript (LST) 1 and natural cytotoxicity-triggering receptor 3 (NCR3) (also known as 1C7 and natural killer (NK)p30). The specific function of LST1 is not known, although expression analysis and functional data suggest an immunomodulatory role. The LST1 gene undergoes extensive alternative splicing, giving rise to both membrane-bound (encoded by exon 3) and soluble isoforms. The NCR3 protein is involved in NK-mediated cytotoxicity and plays a role in NK/dendritic cell crosstalk. Expression of these genes was examined, by real-time reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction, in autoimmune-induced inflammation, specifically rheumatoid-arthritis-affected blood and synovium, and in response to stimulation with inflammatory mediators and bacterial agents. The expression of LST1, specifically splice variants encoding soluble isoforms and NCR3, was increased in rheumatoid-arthritis-affected blood and synovium and was associated with more severe inflammation in the synovium. Furthermore, both genes were significantly up-regulated in response to lipopolysaccharide, interferon (IFN)-gamma and bacterial infection. These findings suggest that NCR3 and soluble isoforms of LST1 may play a role in inflammatory and infectious diseases.
