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

Intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG) produces a rapid and prolonged increase in the platelet counts of children with immune thrombocytopenia (ITP). The mechanism of IVIG efficacy in a murine model of ITP has been reported to operate through an IVIG-mediated increase in the expression of the inhibitory Fc receptor FcγRIIB(CD32B) on splenic macrophages. This investigation examined whether IVIG administration results in a similar increase in FcγRIIB expression on peripheral blood CD14(+) monocytes in 20 children with ITP. FcγRIIB expression on peripheral blood monocytes was measured by flow cytometry in ITP patients, before and after IVIG therapy, as well as in control subjects. Peripheral blood monocytes were labelled with fluorescent-specific antibodies. There were no significant differences in the absolute number of [corrected] CD14(+) CD32B(+) monocytes, and [corrected] the percentages of CD14(+) CD32B(+) cells in mononuclear cells or monocytes. [corrected]. We suggest that IVIG does not increase FcγRIIB expression in peripheral blood monocytes in children with ITP.
