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

Immune complement is a critical system in the immune response and protection of host cells from damage by complement is critical during inflammation. The expression of the receptors for the inflammatory anaphylatoxin molecules is also key in immunity. In order to fully appreciate the biology of complement, a basic understanding of the molecular regulation of complement receptor gene expression is critical, yet these kinds of studies are lacking for many genes. Importantly, recent genetic studies have demonstrated that promoter-enhancer polymorphisms can contribute to pathology in diseases such as atypical hemolytic uremic syndrome. This review will focus on what is currently known about the genetic regulation of key protective complement receptors genes including CR1 (CD35), CR2 (CD21), Crry, MCP (CD46), DAF (CD55), and CD59. In addition, the regulation of the anaphylatoxin receptors genes, C3aR and C5aR (CD88) will also be discussed. Since new research continuously uncovers novel functions for these proteins, a greater appreciation of the mechanisms involved in gene regulation will be critical for understanding the biology of these molecules.
