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

Legionella is a parasite of eukaryotic cells, able to survive and replicate in a wide range of protozoan hosts. It can also infect humans as an opportunistic pathogen, primarily by interaction with alveolar macrophages. These bacteria can cause life-threatening pneumonia, especially in immunocompromised individuals. However, most infections triggered by Legionella are cleared by an efficient host immune system. The protective immune responses against Legionella are complex and multifaceted, involving many components of the immune system. Recognition of such components as LPS, flagellum, and peptidoglycan of L. pneumophila by the TLRs, which orchestrates the innate immune responses to Legionella, lays an important role in activation of monocytes and alveolar macrophages and, thus, in inhibition of intracellular proliferation of bacteria. MyD88-dependent signaling pathways are important for host protection against Legionella.
