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

Influenza-specific immune activity not only promotes virus clearance but also causes immunopathology, thereby underlining the importance of mounting a measured anti-viral immune response. Since complement bridges both the innate and adaptive immune systems and has been implicated in defence against influenza, the role of the complement regulator CD59a in modulating the response to influenza was explored. For this purpose, immune responses to influenza virus, strain E61-13-H17, in mice deficient in the complement regulator protein CD59a (Cd59a(-/-) mice) were compared to those in wild-type mice. The severity of lung inflammation was significantly enhanced in the lungs of Cd59a(-/-) mice with increased numbers of infiltrating neutrophils and CD4(+) T cells. When complement was inhibited using soluble complement receptor 1, the frequency of lung-infiltrating neutrophils in influenza-infected Cd59a(-/-) mice was much reduced whilst numbers of CD4(+) T cells remained unchanged. These results demonstrate that CD59a, previously defined as a complement regulator, modulates both the innate and adaptive immune response to influenza virus by both complement-dependent and -independent mechanisms.
