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

backgroundPsoriasis is characterized as an autoimmune disease resulting in an exaggerated innate immune response. The CXC-chemokine ligand 16 (CXCL16) is described to function as an adhesion molecule, a scavenger receptor or as a soluble molecule it acts as a chemoattractant. CXCL16 has been reported to be expressed in a variety of inflammatory diseases. However, no information has been reported in the literature about the expression of CXCL16 in psoriatic skin. PURPOSE: The present study was designed to analyze the expression and localization of CXCL16 in human psoriatic skin tissues.

resultsIn normal skin, cytpoplasmic expression of CXCL16 was increased in keratinocytes of upper epidermal cell layers as compared to the lower epidermal cell layers. In lesional psoriatic skin, CXCL16 immunoreactivity was increased in the cytoplasm of keratinocytes of lower epidermal layer kerartinocytes as compared to the normal epidermis. Cytoplasmic CXCL16 expression was increased in the capillary endothelial cells of psoriatic dermis as compared to capillary endothelial cells of the normal dermis. Notably, almost all inflammatory cells in the dermis were negative for CXCL16. MATERIALS AND

methodsTen paraffinized specimens of human lesional psoriatic skin and five paraffinized specimens of normal skin were studied using an immunohistochemical streptavidinperoxidase technique.

conclusionWe here report for the first time alterations in the immunohistochemical staining pattern of CXCL16 in lesional psoriatic skin compared to the normal skin. These results suggest that CXCL16 may play a role in the pathogenesis of psoriasis.
