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

During an acute Plasmodium infection, uncontrolled proinflammatory responses can cause morbidity and mortality. Regulation of this response is required to prevent immunopathology. We therefore decided to investigate a recently characterized subset of regulatory dendritic cells (DCs) that expresses low levels of CD11c and high levels of CD45RB. During a Plasmodium yoelii infection, these regulatory CD11clowCD45RBhigh DCs become the prevalent CD11c-expressing cells in the spleen, overtaking the conventional CD11chigh DCs. Furthermore, the regulatory CD11clowCD45RBhigh DCs induce IL-10-expressing CD4 T cells. A similar change in splenic DC subsets is seen when mice are injected with sublethal doses of LPS, suggesting that shifting the splenic DC subsets in favor of regulatory CD11clowCD45RBhigh DCs can be triggered solely by a high inflammatory stimulus. This is the first time regulatory DCs have been observed in a natural immune response to an infectious disease or endotoxic shock.
