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

Schistosome infection could cause significant liver damage in animal; Th2 cells play an important role in the progress of this disease. In our study, C57BL/6 mice were infected by Schistosoma japonicum and lymphocytes were isolated from the liver to detect some characteristics of interleukin-5 (IL-5)-producing T cells by different methods. The results revealed that S. japonicum infection could induce a large amount of IL-5 in mouse liver T cells by the means of fluorescent bead immunoassay and RT-PCR. Although, mouse liver contained many T cell subsets, such as Th cells, Tc cells, NKT cells, and γδ T cells. Fluorescence activated cell sorting results indicated that Th cells were the main source of IL-5 in the T cell population after phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate and ionomycin stimulation. Moreover, the percentage of IL-5-producing Th cells continued to increase from 4 to 8 weeks after S. japonicum infection, which differed from the changes of IFN-γ(+) Th1 cells, IL-4(+) Th2 cells, and IL-17A(+) Th17 cells during S. japonicum infection. Additionally, cytokines co-expression results demonstrated that 36.2 % of IL-5(+) Th cells could express IL-4, and 10 % of it could produce IFN-γ or IL-17A. Collectively, these findings implied that IL-5-producing Th cells posses some properties which differ from other cytokines secreting Th cells.
