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

introductionCampylobacter jejuni is a leading cause of bacterial gastroenteritis worldwide. At present the identity of host-pathogen interactions that promote successful bacterial colonisation remain ill defined. Herein, we aimed to investigate C. jejuni-mediated effects on dendritic cell (DC) immunity.

resultsWe found C. jejuni to be a potent inducer of human and murine DC interleukin 10 (IL-10) in vitro, a cellular event that was MyD88- and p38 MAPK-signalling dependent. Utilizing a series of C. jejuni isogenic mutants we found the major flagellin protein, FlaA, modulated IL-10 expression, an intriguing observation as C. jejuni FlaA is not a TLR5 agonist. Further analysis revealed pseudaminic acid residues on the flagella contributed to DC IL-10 expression. We identified the ability of both viable C. jejuni and purified flagellum to bind to Siglec-10, an immune-modulatory receptor. In vitro infection of Siglec-10 overexpressing cells resulted in increased IL-10 expression in a p38-dependent manner. Detection of Siglec-10 on intestinal CD11c(+) CD103(+) DCs added further credence to the notion that this novel interaction may contribute to immune outcome during human infection.

conclusionsWe propose that unlike the Salmonella Typhimurium flagella-TLR5 driven pro-inflammatory axis, C. jejuni flagella instead promote an anti-inflammatory axis via glycan-Siglec-10 engagement.
