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

backgroundTwo main functionally distinct monocytes phenotypes are known: the CD14(hi)CD16(-) "classical" and the CD14(+)CD16(+) "proinflammatory" phenotypes. The latter phenotype is elevated in patients with ulcerative colitis (UC) and is suspected to have a major role in the immunopathogenesis of UC.

aimTo selectively deplete circulating proinflammatory CD14(+)CD16(+) monocyte phenotype.

methodsSeven corticosteroid-naïve patients with UC (clinical activity index = 8.7 +/- 1.3) and seven healthy subjects were included. In patients with UC, granulocyte/monocyte adsorption (GMA) was done with an Adacolumn that selectively adsorbs leucocytes of the myeloid lineage. Blood from all subjects at baseline and from the patients immediately after the first GMA session was processed. Isolated monocytes were subjected to fluorescence-activated cell sorter analyses.

resultsThe seven UC patients achieved remission (CAI <or=4) after 5-10 GMA sessions. GMA induced a strong fall in the ratio (%) of CD14(+)CD16(+) to CD14(hi)CD16(-) monocytes, from 10.0 +/- 1.4 to 3.0 +/- 0.9. Further, expressions of alpha4 integrin (374.8 +/- 26.1 mean fluorescence intensity, MFI) and CX(3)CR1 (49.5 +/- 4.6 MFI) were significantly high on CD14(+)CD16(+)monocytes as compared with on CD14(hi)CD16(-) monocytes (169.2 +/- 17.2 and 33.2 +/- 3.6 MFI, respectively). Additionally, GMA significantly increased the ratio of the CD14(hi)CD16(-)CCR2(low) "immature" monocytes from 3.74 +/- 0.62 to 8.11 +/- 0.56 MFI.

conclusionsWe found high expressions of alpha4 integrin and CX(3)CR1 on monocytes in patients with active UC, known to promote the extravasation of CD14(+)CD16(+) monocytes into the mucosa. GMA effectively depletes CD14(+)CD16(+) monocytes and concomitantly increases CD14(hi)CD16(-)CCR2(low) "immature" monocytes; thus GMA was associated with the emergence of less inflammatory monocyte phenotype in circulation.
