Increased expression of glycodelin mRNA and protein in rat lungs during ovalbumin-induced allergic airway inflammation.
Article in Histochemistry and cell biology, 2009. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Asthma is a chronic inflammatory disease accompanied by airway obstruction and hyper-responsiveness. Asthmatic inflammation is characterized by the expression of multiple genes for inflammatory mediators. Glycodelin is a glycoprotein with several functions in cell recognition and differentiation. There is substantial evidence that glycodelin may be a mediator for immunomodulatory and immunosuppressive effects on several human tissues. To determine the potential role of glycodelin in the pulmonary immune response, we examined the distribution of the glycodelin mRNA and protein in an experimental rat model of allergen-induced airway inflammation. The experimental model developed an airway response to inhaled nebulized ovalbumin in adult rats. Two groups of rats (ovalbumin and saline) were challenged for 3 weeks, lungs were fixed and embedded, and sections were studied for expression of glycodelin mRNA by in situ hybridization and protein by immunohistochemistry. Glycodelin is expressed in Clara cells of bronchial epithelium, type II pneumocytes and alveolar macrophages. Densitometric analyses show a significant increase of the glycodelin mRNA and protein expression in rat lungs after ovalbumin challenge. Induced glycodelin amounts in tissue, particularly in Clara cells and alveolar macrophages were found. The altered expression pattern of glycodelin may contribute to the pulmonary immune response in asthmatic inflammation.
