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

Cellular Fcγ receptors are essential for IgG-dependent effector functions in vivo. There is convincing evidence that selective activating Fcγ receptors are responsible for the activity of individual IgG subclasses. Thus, IgG1 activity is absent in FcγRIII-deficient mice, and several studies suggest that the activity of the most potent IgG subclasses, IgG2a and IgG2b, might be dependent on either individual or a combination of activating FcγRs. To study the role of individual activating FcγRs for IgG subclass activity, we generated an FcγRIV-deficient mouse and showed that a variety of IgG2a- and IgG2b-dependent effector functions are impaired in the absence of this activating Fc receptor in models of autoimmunity and antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity.
