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

Spleen tyrosine kinase (Syk) is expressed widely in hematopoietic and non-hematopoietic cells. The widespread distribution of Syk and its involvement in host defense and allergic reactions, prompted us analyze the influence of microbial exposure on Syk expression. We compared the distribution of Syk in various tissues of germ-free and conventional mice using immunohistochemistry, Western blot analysis and real time RT-PCR. Total Syk expression was similar between germ-free and conventional mice. Since it has been claimed that Syk isoforms are differentially expressed, we studied the distribution and abundance of Syk (L) and Syk (S) isoforms in tissues from these mice. In contrast to previous reports, we found broad tissue expression of Syk (S). Interestingly, in germ-free mice the amount of Syk (S) but not Syk L protein was selectively increased in lung and spleen. In summary, our study reveals new and broad tissue expression of both Syk isoforms and demonstrates that lack of microbial flora results in selectively increased expression of Syk (S) isoform in lung and spleen.
