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

Here, we evaluated the influence of endogenous opioid activation on immune responses by examining consequences of all three opioid receptor gene (mu, delta and kappa) inactivation. In triple-opioid receptor knockout mice, splenocytes and thymocytes numbers, lymphocyte subsets as well as proliferation and cytokines induced by in vitro stimulation of T lymphocytes were measured. Compared with wild-type mice, similar lymphocyte distribution in thymus and spleen as well as comparable T lymphocyte proliferation were observed, while lower levels of IL-2 and IFNγ as well as higher levels of IL-4 and IL-10 were found in triple-opioid receptor knockout mice. Together, our results indicate a shift from TH1 to TH2 cytokines in triple-opioid receptor knockout animals, suggesting that global endogenous opioid tone drives T lymphocytes toward a TH1 profile under non-pathological conditions.
