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

The effect of glucocorticoid treatment on protein expression in bovine neutrophils was examined with a proteomic approach to address the mechanisms by which stress alters neutrophil function and predisposes to bacterial pneumonia in cattle. Calves 6 to 8 mo old were treated with dexamethasone (0.1 mg/kg), neutrophils were isolated 24 h later, and whole-cell lysates were examined by 2-dimensional electrophoresis. Differentially expressed protein spots were identified by peptide mass fingerprinting. The antimicrobial protein lactotransferrin was detected at increased amounts in the neutrophils of the dexamethasone-treated calves. Proteins detected at reduced amounts in the neutrophils of the dexamethasone-treated calves included annexin 1, phosphoglycerate mutase, Na(+) - K+ ATPase, and cathelicidin 1. These findings identify glucocorticoid-induced changes in the levels of neutrophil proteins involved in host defense, inflammation, and cellular metabolism and suggest additional mechanisms by which glucocorticoids affect neutrophil function.
