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

Human recombinant lipocortins (LCT) 1 and 5 have been expressed in a yeast secretion vector and purified by ion exchange chromatography. The action of the proteins has been investigated in two models of experimental acute inflammation in the rat: carrageenin induced paw oedema and zymosan induced pleurisy. The effects of the proteins on PGE(2) release in vitro by rat macrophages stimulated with zymosan and on rat neutrophil chemotaxis induced by FMLP have also been assessed. LCT-1 significantly inhibited both paw swelling in carrageenin oedema and leukocyte migration in zymosan pleurisy. Moreover it showed a dose dependent, inhibitory effect on PGE(2) release. Neutrophil chemotaxis was only weakly affected by LCT-1. Conversely LCT-5 did not reduce carrageenin oedema and slightly inhibited PGE(2) release, but showed profound, dose dependent inhibitory activity on leukocyte migration in zymosan pleurisy and on neutrophil chemotaxis. These data suggest that LCT-1 acts mainly by interfering with arachidonic acid metabolism via the inhibition of phospholipase A(2). The anti-inflammatory activity of LCT-5, at variance with LCT-1, may be due to a direct effect on cell motility in addition to the interference with arachidonic acid metabolism.
