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

Staphylococcal enterotoxin (SE) -induced toxic shock is triggered by inflammatory cytokine signal amplification after SE binding to major histocompatibility complex class II molecules on antigen-presenting cells and T-cell receptors. Identifying host cellular elements contributing to this pro-inflammatory signal amplification is critical for developing a strategy for therapeutic intervention. Myeloid differentiation primary-response protein 88 (MyD88) is an intracellular signalling adaptor protein primarily known for mediating pro-inflammatory cytokine responses. We investigated the role of MyD88 in staphylococcal enterotoxin A (SEA) -treated cell cultures and mouse models of toxic shock. Our results demonstrated that elevated levels of tumour necrosis factor-alpha, interferon-gamma, interleukin-1alpha/beta (IL-1alpha/beta), IL-2 and IL-6 production correlated with up-regulation of MyD88 after treatment of spleen cells and mice with SEA alone or in combination with lipopolysaccharide (LPS). The SEA-induced lethality was also observed in (LPS-independent) D-galactosamine-sensitized mice. While LPS potentiated SEA-induced cytokine responses, D-galactosamine treatment had no additive effect. Most importantly, our results demonstrated that MyD88(-/-) mice were resistant to SEA-induced toxic shock and had reduced pro-inflammatory cytokine responses. These results suggest that SEA-induced lethality is primarily dependent on MyD88. Our findings offer an important insight on potential therapeutic treatment of SEA-induced toxic shock targeting MyD88.
