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

Allergic asthma is a genetically complex disease characterized by allergen-specific immunoglobulin (Ig)E, eosinophilic inflammation of the lungs and airway hyper-responsiveness to bronchospasmogenic stimuli. In this study, we compared 13 recombinant congenic (RC) mouse strains in an ovalbumin model of allergic asthma. Different intensities and types of responses are observed throughout the RC strains. Intensities range from resistance to asthma in CcS05, to a very severe bronchoconstrictive reaction upon methacholine challenge for the parental STS strain. All strains show a 'modified' Th2 response except CcS14, which shows a 'true' Th2 response. When data from all strains are pooled, airway reactivity shows significant correlations with the serum Ig levels and the levels of interleukin (IL)-4, IL-5 and IL-13 in the broncho-alveolar lavage (BAL), at low dosage of methacholine (below 25 mg/ml), whereas at high dosage airway reactivity only correlates with BAL neutrophil levels. This indicates that at least two different mechanisms are involved in the airway reactivity to methacholine. None of these correlations can be found in every individual strain, which demonstrates that the asthma traits in this mouse model are genetically dissociated and that the loci can be genetically mapped.
