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

backgroundAtopic dermatitis is characterized by scratching and by T(H)2-dominated immune response to cutaneously introduced antigens. Antigen application to skin mechanically injured by tape stripping results in T(H)2-dominated skin inflammation.

objectiveTo examine the effect of tape stripping on the capacity of skin dendritic cells (DCs) to polarize T cells toward a T(H)2 phenotype.

methodsCD11c(+) DCs were isolated from skin of BALB/c or C57BL/6 mice. Fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC)(+) and FITC(-) DCs were isolated from draining lymph nodes (DLNs) 24 hours after painting the skin with FITC. DCs were assessed for their ability to induce cytokine secretion by ovalbumin-stimulated naive CD4(+) T cells from T cell receptor-ovalbumin transgenic DO11.10 mice. Cytokine mRNA levels were examined by quantitative PCR.

resultsDendritic cells isolated from the skin of wild-type, but not thymic stromal lymphopoietin (TSLP) receptor(-/-) or IL-10(-/-), mice 6 hours after tape stripping elicited significantly more IL-4 and IL-13 and significantly less IFN-γ production by CD4(+) cells than DCs isolated from unmanipulated skin, and expressed significantly more mRNA for the T(H)2 skewing molecules IL-10, Jagged1, and Jagged2, but significantly less mRNA for the T(H)1 skewing cytokine IL-12. CD11c(+)FITC(+) cells isolated from DLNs of shaved and tape stripped skin of wild-type, but not TSLP receptor(-/-) or IL-10(-/-), mice polarized T cells significantly more toward T(H)2 and expressed significantly more IL-10, Jagged1, and Jagged2 mRNA than CD11c(+)FITC(+) cells isolated from DLNs of shaved skin. Tape stripping significantly increased TSLP levels in the skin, and TSLP was shown to play an essential role in the T(H)2 polarization of skin DCs by tape stripping.

conclusionsTape stripping upregulates TSLP levels in the skin, which polarizes skin DCs to elicit a T(H)2 response via the induction of IL-10.
