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

backgroundAdenosine is produced in response to ischemia or inflammation and protects tissues from injury. Four adenosine receptors are critical in the physiologic negative-feedback mechanism for limitation and termination of tissue-specific and systemic inflammatory responses. Accumulating evidence has focused on the anti-inflammatory and immunosuppressive role of the adenosine 2A receptor (A(2A)R), and we have previously reported on its role in the development of bronchiolitis obliterans (BO) after lung transplantation. Few studies, however, have reported the role of the adenosine 2B receptor (A(2B)R) in BO. Data suggests that the A(2B)R has pro-inflammatory and pro-fibrotic roles. We hypothesized that adenosine signaling through A(2B)R is involved in the development of BO.

methodsA murine heterotopic tracheal model across a total alloantigenic mismatch was used to study A(2B)R signaling in BO. Tracheal transplants consisted of Balb/c donor tracheas transplanted into wild-type or A(2B)R knockout (KO) C57BL/6 recipients. Transplanted tracheas were removed 3, 7, 12, and 21 days after transplantation. The luminal obliteration was evaluated through hematoxylin and eosin staining, and the cellular infiltration (macrophage, neutrophil, CD3+ and Foxp3+ regulatory T cell) was detected by immunohistochemical staining.

resultsCompared with allografts in wild-type recipients, tracheas transplanted into A(2B)R KO mice displayed less BO development on Day 21. A(2B)R KO mice had an increase in CD3+ T cells and CD4+/CD25+/Foxp3+ regulatory T cells than did wild-type mice on Day 7. By Day 12, more CD3+ T cells were present in the wild-type trachea compared with the A(2B)R KO, but the percentage of CD4+/CD25+/Foxp3+ regulatory T cells remained higher in the tracheas of A(2B)R KO mice.

conclusionsA(2B)R stimulation may promote the development of BO by inhibiting CD4+/CD25+/Foxp3+ regulatory T-cell infiltration.
