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

objectiveThis study was designed to examine the potential ability of Candida albicans DNA to influence joint inflammation in a mouse model of zymosan-induced arthritis (ZIA) relating to Toll-like receptor-9 (TLR9) expression and cytokine production in different compartments.

methodsTo induce ZIA, mice were injected in the ankle joint with 180 μg zymosan. TLR9 expression in synovial extracts, peritoneal macrophages, splenocytes and popliteal lymph node cells was analyzed by flow cytometry. The levels of interferon (IFN)-γ, interleukin (IL)-6 and IL-10 in synovial fluid and sera were measured by ELISA. The expression of TLR9 in the joints was determined by immunohistochemistry.

resultsA single intraperitoneal injection of C. albicans DNA did not elevate TLR9 expression and cytokine levels in the joints. It increased TLR9 expression by peritoneal macrophages isolated from healthy and arthritic mice and elevated the IFN-γ level in circulation. In-vitro stimulation with DNA enhanced IL-6, IFN-γ and IL-10 production by different cells isolated from mice with ZIA.

conclusionThese results suggest that small quantities of C. albicans DNA can provoke a pro-inflammatory systemic response rather than locally in the joint.
