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

To determine the relation between neutrophil function and the clinical characteristics of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), the superoxide anion (O2-) production by neutrophils, mediated by FcgammaR and FcgammaR/CR cooperation, was studied in 64 SLE patients classified according to their prevalent clinical manifestations. Three clinically distinct patterns were designated: (1) manifestations associated with the occurrence of cytotoxic antibodies (SLE-I group); (2) manifestations associated with circulating immune complexes (IC; SLE-II group), and (3) manifestations associated with IC and cytotoxic antibodies (SLE-III group). O2- production was evaluated by a lucigenin-dependent chemiluminescent assay in neutrophils stimulated with IC-IgG opsonized or not with complement. No difference in O2- production was observed when neutrophil responses from healthy controls were compared to the unclassified patients. However, when the SLE patient groups were considered, the following differences were observed: (1) SLE-I neutrophils showed lower O2- production mediated by the IgG receptor (FcgammaR) with the cooperation of complement receptors (FcgammaR/CR) than observed in the SLE-II, SLE-III, and healthy groups; (2) neutrophils from the SLE-II group showed a decreased [Formula: see text] production mediated by FcgammaR/CR compared to the SLE-III group, (3) SLE-III neutrophils produced more O(2)(-) than neutrophils from the SLE-II and control groups, and (4) CR showed inefficiency in mediating the O2- production by neutrophils from the SLE-I group. Comparative experiments on the kinetics of chemiluminescence (CL; Tmax and CLmax) disclosed differences only for the SLE-I group. Taken together, these results suggest that differences in oxidative metabolism of neutrophils mediated by FcgammaR/CR may reflect an acquired characteristic of disease associated with distinct clinical manifestations.
