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

Receptors for IgE (Fc epsilon R) on rat bone marrow-derived macrophages (BMDM phi) were demonstrated by a rosette assay employing trinitrophenyl-coated ox erythrocytes (EoTNP) sensitized with mouse IgE anti-dinitrophenyl monoclonal antibody (EoTNP-IgE). Virtually all BMDM phi emerging from bone marrow cells cultured for 1 week in the presence of mouse L929 cell supernatant, with partially purified murine CSF-1 or recombinant murine GM-CSF, formed IgE rosettes. To study the effect of interferons (IFNs) on Fc epsilon R expression, 1-week-old rat BMDM phi were incubated with murine recombinant IFN-gamma, purified IFN-alpha or IFN-beta, and were tested for their capacity to bind and ingest EoTNP sensitized suboptimally with IgE. A marked increase in the percentage of cells forming IgE rosettes or phagocytosing EoTNP-IgE was noted after 8-72 hr incubation of BMDM phi with 0.1-1000 U/ml of IFNs. At similar concentrations IFN-gamma and IFN-beta triggered EoTNP-IgE binding or ingestion more efficiently than IFN-alpha. The enhancing effect was blocked by the respective anti-IFN antibodies, cycloheximide or actinomycin D but not by mitomycin C. The IgE rosette formation and IgE-mediated phagocytosis were dose-dependently inhibited by native rat IgE but not by heat-denaturated IgE myeloma protein IR162 or monomeric rabbit IgG. Our results demonstrate that rat BMDM phi express constitutively Fc epsilon R, and that murine IFNs augment Fc epsilon R-mediated binding and ingestion in a time- and dose-dependent manner. This effect probably reflects an increase in the number of Fc epsilon R per cell, as a result of de novo synthesis of Fc epsilon R.
