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

purposeTo obtain mimic peptides that specifically bind with the first and second extracellular loops (ECL1, ECL2) of the CC chemokine receptor 5 (CCR5) and to study their treatment effects on experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE) mice.

methodsA phage display peptide library was applied to screen peptides that bond with ECL1 and ECL2. ELISA and DNA sequence analysis were used to identify positive clones. EAE mice were treated with synthesized peptides by intraperitoneal injection.

resultsEighteen positive clones were obtained and four peptides with sequences STFTTTL, TPIPQLL, SLPLPKP and QTSSAAL were identified. These peptides could significantly protect against and reduce the severity of EAE. The infiltration of monocytes and lymphocytes into the spinal cord decreased significantly in treated mice, while abundant inflammatory cells and demyelination were observed in spinal cords of EAE mice.

conclusionCCR5 mimic peptides provided a significant protective effect to EAE mice. These potent inhibitory mimic peptides could be useful in the clinical treatment of multiple sclerosis.
