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

Platelets have been shown to be important in inflammation, but their role in chronic allergic dermatitis remains unclear. To investigate the role of platelets in a mouse model of chronic contact hypersensitivity induced by repeated elicitation, mice were sensitized and repeatedly elicited in ears with hapten, with or without platelet depletion, by administering antiplatelet antibody or busulfan. Ear thickness, leukocyte infiltration, serum IgE, and scratching behavior significantly decreased in thrombocytopenic mice. cDNA microarray of ear tissue showed reduced gene expression associated with Th2 lymphocytes. Flow cytometry showed increased P-selectin expression on platelets and an increased number of platelet-leukocyte aggregates in blood of repeatedly elicited mice, compared with sham-sensitized mice. In thrombocytopenic mice, inflammation was restored by platelet infusion, which was blocked by platelets from P-selectin-deficient mice or by pretreating platelets with anti-P-selectin antibody. Moreover, injection of activated platelet supernatant into ears led to increased leukocyte infiltration, which was blocked by pretreating platelets with antiplatelet compounds or neutralizing several chemokines in the platelet supernatant. These results suggest that platelets induce leukocyte recruitment into skin by forming platelet-leukocyte aggregates via P-selectin in blood and secreting chemokines at inflamed sites. Therefore, controlling platelet activity may be useful for treatment of chronic allergic dermatitis.
