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

We previously reported the inhibitory action of interleukin-6 (IL-6) on B lymphopoiesis with SHIP(-/-) mice and showed that IL-6 biases lineage commitment toward myeloid cell fates in vitro and in vivo. Because elevated IL-6 is a feature of chronic inflammatory diseases, we applied an animal model of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) to determine whether IL-6 has similar effects on hematopoiesis. We found that IL-6 levels were elevated in the B6.Sle1.Yaa mice, and the increase was accompanied by losses of CD19(+) B cells and more primitive B-lymphoid progenitors in bone marrow. Both the CD19(+) B-cell population and their progenitors recovered in an IL-6(-/-) background. The uncommitted progenitors, containing precursors for both lymphoid and myeloid fates, expressed IL-6 receptor-alpha chain and responded to IL-6 by phosphorylation of STAT3. IL-6 stimulation caused uncommitted progenitors to express the Id1 transcription factor, which is known to inhibit lymphopoiesis and elevate myelopoiesis, and its expression was MAPK dependent. We conclude that chronic inflammatory conditions accompanied by increased IL-6 production bias uncommitted progenitors to a myeloid fate by inducing Id1 expression.
