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

Pertussis toxin (PTX) is an exotoxin produced by Bordetella pertussis. It is known to exert adjuvant activities inducing Th1-launched immune responses. In this study, we show that PTX can selectively block the expression of CD1a isoform during the differentiation of human monocytes into dendritic cells. In fact, dendritic cells differentiated from monocytes in the presence of PTX do not express CD1a on their surface, unlike CD1b and CD1c isoforms, which are normally regulated. The impaired CD1a expression on cell membrane depends, at least partially, on decreased mRNA transcription and does not affect cellular capability to respond to other maturation stimuli. Since CD1a(+) dendritic cells are involved in the early steps of primary immune response, the interference of PTX in the CD1a expression may be relevant for its employment as adjuvant.
