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

objectiveOropharyngeal candidiasis (OPC), caused by Candida albicans, is the most common oral infection in HIV(+) persons. Oral epithelial cells are considered important for innate host defense against OPC with production of cytokines in response to C. albicans and the ability to inhibit Candida growth in vitro. The purpose of this study was to determine if Candida similarly induces cytokines by oral epithelial cells from HIV(+) persons, including those with OPC, as well as to determine if cytokines can influence the oral epithelial cell anti-Candida activity.

methodsSupernatants from oral epithelial cells from HIV(+) persons with and without OPC cultured with Candida were evaluated for cytokines by ELISA, or cytokines were added to the standard growth inhibition assay using epithelial cells from HIV(-) persons.

resultsResults showed low Candida-induced epithelial cell cytokine production from HIV(+) persons, but with some elevated proinflammatory cytokines (TNF-alpha, IL-6) in those with OPC compared to those without OPC. The addition of specific proinflammatory or Th cytokines had no effect on oral epithelial cell anti-Candida activity in healthy HIV(-) persons.

conclusionThese results suggest that oral epithelial cells from HIV(+) persons can contribute at some level to the oral cytokine milieu in response to Candida during OPC, but that cytokines do not appear to influence oral epithelial cell anti-Candida activity.
