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

Toxoplasma gondii-derived heat shock protein 70 (T.g.HSP70) induced maturation of bone marrow-derived dendritic cells (DCs) of wild-type (WT) C57BL/6 mice as evidenced by an increase in surface expression of MHC class I and II molecules and costimulatory molecules such as CD40, CD80, and CD86. Functionally, decreased phagocytic ability and increased alloreactive T cell stimulatory ability were observed in T.g.HSP70-stimulated DCs. These phenotypic and functional changes of T.g.HSP70-stimulated DCs were demonstrated in Toll-like receptor (TLR) 2- and myeloid differentiation factor 88 (MyD88)-deficient but not TLR4-deficient C57BL/6 mice. DCs from WT and TLR2-deficient but not TLR4-deficient mice produced IL-12 after T.g.HSP70 stimulation. T.g.HSP70-stimulated DCs from WT, TLR2-deficient, and MyD88-deficient, but not TLR4-deficient mice expressed IFN-beta mRNA. Thus, T.g.HSP70 stimulates murine DC maturation via TLR4 through the MyD88-independent signal transduction cascade.
