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

T helper (Th)1/Th2 balance determines the direction of some kinds of autoimmune diseases. The involvement of acini areas by CD4(+) helper T(Th) cell subset in submandibular and lacrimal glands are largely unknown in secondary Sjögren's syndrome (sSjS) with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). Submandibular and lacrimal glands were examined immunopathologically in lupus-prone female NZB × NZW(B/W)F(1) mice, model for human sSjS with SLE. Dacryoadenitis and sialoadenitis with renal failure developed with age. Infiltration of lymphoid cells (lymphocytes and plasma cells) expanded from the periductal areas in striated ducts to the acini, and the isolated foci in the acini were observed in those organs. The destruction of duct and acini epithelium, including the myoepithelium, was induced by interferon (IFN)-γ(+) and IgG2a(+) lymphoid cells, but not by interleukin(IL)-4(+), IL-5(+), IL-13(+), and IgG1(+) lymphoid cells. Compared with IL-5 and IL-13, high values of IFN-γ were produced systemically at various ages. Also local expression of IFN-γ mRNA was higher than that of IL-4 mRNA. The result suggests that the acini destruction in submandibular and lacrimal glands may be induced by systemic and local Th1 cell dominant reactions in lupus-prone B/WF(1) mice with sSjS.
