Characterization of the major neutrophil-stimulating activity present in culture medium conditioned by Staphylococcus aureus-stimulated mononuclear leucocytes.
Article in Immunology, 1991. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 papers.
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
Culture medium conditioned by stimulating human mononuclear leucocytes (MNL) with killed Staphylococcus aureus (Scm) was found to contain a substantial amount of tumour necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) but no detectable tumour necrosis factor-beta (TNF-beta). Culture medium conditioned by MNL in the absence of bacteria contained no TNF-alpha activity. When Scm was fractionated by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) on Bio-Sil TSK 250, TNF-alpha co-eluted with neutrophil-stimulating activity measured by chemiluminescence. Similarly, the ability of neutrophils to kill opsonized S. aureus was enhanced in fractions that contained this neutrophil-stimulating activity. The stimulating activity could be almost completely removed by pretreatment of the Scm with a TNF-alpha-specific monoclonal antibody (mAb). The ability of neutrophils to kill S. aureus in response to Scm was also substantially reduced by mAb to TNF-alpha. These results demonstrate that bacterial interaction with MNL leads to the release of neutrophil-stimulating activity that consists predominantly of TNF-alpha.
