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

The human pathogen Helicobacter pylori expresses two dominant adhesins; the Lewis b blood group antigen binding adhesin, BabA, and the sialic acid-binding adhesin, SabA. These adhesins recognize specific carbohydrate moieties of the gastric epithelium, i.e. the Lewis b antigen, Le(b), and the sialyl-Lewis x antigen, sLe(x), respectively, which promote infection and inflammatory processes in the gastroduodenal tract. To assess the contribution of each of BabA, SabA and the neutrophil activating protein (HP-NAP) in a local inflammation, we investigated the traits of H. pylori mutants in their capacity to interact with and stimulate human neutrophils. We thence found that the SabA adhesin was not only the key inducer of oxidative metabolism (Unemo et al. J Biol Chem 280:15390-15397, 2005), but also essential in phagocytosis induction, as evaluated by flow cytometry, fluorescence microscopy and luminol-enhanced chemiluminescence. The napA deletion resulted in enhanced generation of reactive oxygen species and impaired adherence to the host cells. In conclusion, the SabA adhesin stimulates human neutrophils through selectin-mimicry. Interestingly, HP-NAP modulates the oxidative burst, which could tune the impact of the H. pylori infection for establishment of balanced and chronic inflammation of the gastric mucosa.
