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

Herpes simplex virus 1 (HSV-1) replication initiates inflammation and angiogenesis responses in the cornea to result in herpetic stromal keratitis (HSK), which is a leading cause of infection-induced vision impairment. Chemokines are secreted to modulate HSK by recruiting leukocytes, which affect virus growth, and by influencing angiogenesis. The present study used a murine infection model to investigate the significance of the chemokine CXC chemokine ligand 10 (CXCL10; gamma interferon-inducible protein 10 [IP-10]) in HSK. Here, we show that HSV-1 infection of the cornea induced CXCL10 protein expression in epithelial cells. The corneas of mice with a targeted disruption of the gene encoding CXCL10 displayed decreases in levels of neutrophil-attracting cytokine (interleukin-6), primary neutrophil influx, and viral clearance 2 or 3 days postinfection. Subsequently, absence of CXCL10 aggravated HSK with elevated levels of interleukin-6, chemokines for CD4(+) T cells and/or neutrophils (macrophage inflammatory protein-1α and macrophage inflammatory protein-2), angiogenic factor (vascular endothelial growth factor A), and secondary neutrophil influx, as well as infiltration of CD4(+) T cells to exacerbate opacity and angiogenesis in the cornea at 14 and up to 28 days postinfection. Our results collectively show that endogenous CXCL10 contributes to recruit the primary neutrophil influx and to affect the expression of cytokines, chemokines, and angiogenic factors as well as to reduce the viral titer and HSK severity.
