In vitro Superoxide Production by Peripheral Neutrophils from Patients with Inflammatory Bowel Disease.
Article in Mediators of inflammation, 1994. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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.
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
Activated polymorphonuclear leucocytes, which are accumulated in inflammatory lesions of inflammatory bowel disease, produce tissue destructive, oxygen derived free radicals and other inflammatory mediators. The PMN superoxide production elicited by formyl-methionyl-leucyl-phenylalanine or the complement split product 5a were compared in IBD and healthy volunteers. Significantly reduced superoxide production was found in PMNs from patients with Crohn's disease as compared to normal controls, when fMLP or CSa were used as stimulants (p < 0.001 and p < 0.01, respectively), whereas no differences were found when ulcerative colitis patients were compared to normal controls (p > 0.05). The enhanced oxygen derived free radical production previously reported in active IBD, and especially in CD intestinal lesions, may either be due to an accumulation of productive phagocytes or to a change of the inflammatory profile of these cells when migrating into intestinal lesions, possibly due to interaction with other mediators (e.g. adhesion molecules and interleukins).
