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

Glomerular disease can be triggered or exacerbated by microbes that activate the immune system by Toll-like receptor (TLR) ligation. TLR9 activation promotes host defenses through the enhancement of innate and adaptive immune responses that facilitate the recruitment of leukocytes to areas of inflammation. We defined the role of TLR9 in experimental crescentic glomerulonephritis. Wild-type mice administered a TLR9 ligand and sheep anti-mouse glomerular basement membrane antibody developed histological injury with impaired renal function, which was attenuated in TLR9 knockout mice. Consistent with enhanced renal injury, wild-type mice exhibited enhanced T helper 1 and T helper 17 cellular immune responses. Kidney mRNA expression of inflammatory cytokines and chemokines as well as leukocyte recruitment were increased in wild-type mice. The use of bone marrow chimeric mice demonstrated that while both bone marrow and tissue cell TLR9 are required for maximal injury, bone marrow TLR9 is more important. Administration of a TLR9 inhibitor before sheep anti-mouse glomerular basement membrane globulin in wild-type mice attenuated cellular nephritogenic immunity that resulted in decreased renal injury. Administration of the inhibitor 7 days after disease initiation decreased glomerular leukocyte recruitment as well as renal injury. These results define the role of TLR9 in experimental crescentic glomerulonephritis and identify therapeutic potential for TLR9 inhibitors in attenuating renal injury, decreasing cellular nephritogenic immunity early in disease, and decreasing kidney effector responses later.
