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

Crosslinking of cell-bound IgE on mouse connective tissue-type mast cells (CTMC) by multivalent antigen or anti-IgE antibody induced clonal growth of CTMC in methylcellulose culture containing IL-3. Continuous presence of antigen, IgE antibody, and IL-3 in culture was required for extensive proliferation of CTMC. Optimal concentrations of antigen and anti-IgE antibody for proliferation of sensitized CTMC approximately corresponded to those for maximal histamine release from the cells, and it was observed that most dividing cells stimulated by antigen had pericellular degranulation halos in culture. Experiments of both single cell culture and serum free culture provided evidence for a direct effect of antigen stimulation on proliferation of CTMC. Neither accessory cells nor some factors in FCS were required for the clonal growth of CTMC in our culture condition. Compound 48/80, a direct stimulator of CTMC, also triggered histamine release from CTMC but failed to support their proliferation. These results suggest that stimulation of CTMC via IgE receptors not only triggers the release of chemical mediators from the cells but induces clonal growth of CTMC in the presence of IL-3. Our data indicate the possibility that antigen stimulation may play another role in the proliferation of CTMC.
