Bi-directional calcium signaling between adjacent leukocytes and trophoblast-like cells.
Article in American journal of reproductive immunology (New York, N.Y. : 1989), 2010. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
problemTrophoblasts are believed to play an important role in mitigating immunological responses against the fetus. To better understand the nature of trophoblast-leukocyte interactions, we have studied signal transduction during intercellular interactions. METHOD OF STUDY: Using a highly sensitive microfluorometric ratioing method and Ca²(+) -sensitive dyes, we measured Ca²(+) signals in trophoblast-like cell lines (JEG-3 and JAR) or in leukocytes (neutrophils and monocytes) during intercellular contact.
resultsTrophoblast cell lines exhibit Ca²(+) signals during leukocyte contact. In contrast, leukocytes cannot elicit Ca²(+) signals in non-opsonized tumour cells, suggesting that Ca²(+) signaling is not a general feature of cell-cell encounters. Similarly, leukocytes demonstrate Ca²(+) signals during contact with trophoblast cell lines. Ca²(+) signals were confirmed using three dyes and with the Ca²(+) buffer BAPTA.
conclusionWe suggest that leukocyte-to-trophoblast interactions lead to mutual Ca²(+) signaling events in both cell types, which may contribute to immunoregulation at the materno-fetal interface.
