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

Chemotaxis is essential for shaping immune responses and chemokine-receptor antagonists are now being evaluated as therapies for various inflammatory and autoimmune diseases. However, the dysregulation of chemotaxis in autoimmune disease may involve both promotion and inhibition of B-cell migration. This review focuses on the disparate mechanisms by which two inflammatory cytokines that have been associated with autoimmune disease, namely interferon-alpha (IFN-alpha) and interleukin-17 (IL-17), may regulate B-cell migratory responses. Chemotactic responses play a key role in orchestrating the cell-cell interactions in the germinal centers (GCs). This process involves active shuttling of the antigen-carrying B cells between the marginal zone and the GCs. We have shown that in autoimmune BXD2 mice, the migration of marginal zone precursor B cells is promoted by high levels of IFN-alpha produced by plasmacytoid dendritic cells in the marginal sinus that antagonize the activity of the S1P(1) chemokine receptor. In contrast, within the GCs, interleukin-17A (IL-17A) upregulates the expression of regulators of G protein signaling (RGS) in B cells to desensitize the G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) signaling pathway of CXCL12 and CXCL13 chemokines. This promotes a prolonged stable interaction of B and T cells in the GC that induces high levels of activation-induced cytidine deaminase (AICDA) thereby enabling development of pathogenic autoantibody-producing B cells.
