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

There are multiple mechanisms that protect the intestine from an excessive inflammatory response to intestinal microorganisms. We report here that all four mammalian peptidoglycan recognition proteins (PGRPs or Pglyrps) protect the host from colitis induced by dextran sulfate sodium (DSS). Pglyrp1(-/-), Pglyrp2(-/-), Pglyrp3(-/-), and Pglyrp4(-/-) mice are all more sensitive than wild-type mice to DSS-induced colitis due to a more inflammatory gut microflora, higher production of interferon-gamma, higher expression of interferon-inducible genes, and an increased number of NK cells in the colon upon initial exposure to DSS, which leads to severe hyperplasia of the lamina propria, loss of epithelial cells, and ulceration in the colon. Thus, during experimental colitis, PGRPs protect the colon of wild-type mice from an early inflammatory response and the loss of the barrier function of intestinal epithelium by promoting normal bacterial flora and by preventing damaging production of interferon-gamma by NK cells in response to injury.
