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

Allergy is caused by immune effector cells, including mast cells and basophils. Cellular signaling that activates these effector cells is regulated by different inhibitory receptors on their surface. We show that human leukocyte immunoglobulin (Ig)-like receptor (LILR) B2 and its mouse orthologue, paired Ig-like receptor (PIR)-B, constitutively associate to major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I on the same cell surface (in cis). The IgE-mediated effector responses were augmented in beta(2)-microglobulin (beta(2)m) and PIR-B-deficient mast cells. In addition, the increased cytokine production of beta(2)m-deficient mast cells was not affected by the co-culture with MHC class I-positive mast cells, showing that less cis interaction between PIR-B and MHC class I on mast cells led to the increased cytokine release. Thus, the constitutive cis binding between LILRB2 or PIR-B and MHC class I has an essential role in regulating allergic responses.
