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

In mycobacterial infections of mice there is a chronic, immune-mediated mobilization of neutrophils to the infectious site. In this study we evaluated the role played by cytokines in the chronic peritoneal neutrophilia which occurs in mice intraperitoneally infected with Mycobacterium bovis BCG or M. avium. Antibodies to IFN-gamma and to MIP-1 and -2 were effective in reducing peritoneal neutrophilia when given during the infection. Whereas the former antibody was only effective when given early, the latter two were effective when administered late in infection, suggesting the MIPs were direct mediators of neutrophil recruitment. Recombinant IFN-gamma given intraperitoneally induced the accumulation of neutrophils and primed the peritoneal cells for an enhanced recruitment of neutrophils. Our data show that chronic neutrophilia during mycobacterial infection is regulated by different cytokines acting at different stages and levels of neutrophil recruitment.
