Single-walled carbon nanotube exposure induces membrane rearrangement and suppression of receptor-mediated signalling pathways in model mast cells.
Article in Toxicology letters, 2014. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers.
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.
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
Carbon nanotubes (CNT) are environmental challenges to the respiratory and gastrointestinal mucosa, and to the dermal immune system. Mast cells (MC) are pro-inflammatory immunocytes that reside at these interfaces with the environment. Mast cells are sources of pro-inflammatory mediators (histamine, serotonin, matrix-active proteases, eicosanoids, prostanoids, cytokines and chemokines), which are released in a calcium-dependent manner following immunological challenge or physico-chemical stimulation. Since C-60 fullerenes, which share geometry with CNT, are suppressive of mast cell-driven inflammatory responses, we explored the effects of unmodified SWCNT aggregates on mast cell signaling pathways, phenotype and pro-inflammatory function. We noted SWCNT suppression of antigen-induced signalling pathways and pro-inflammatory degranulation responses. Mast cells recognize unmodified SWCNT by remodeling the plasma membrane, disaggregating the cortical actin cytoskeleton and relocalizing clathrin. Clathrin was also identified as a component of an affinity-purified 'interactome' isolated from MC using an SWCNT affinity matrix for mast cell lysates. Together, these data are consistent with the ability of SWCNT to suppress mast cell pro-inflammatory function via a novel recognition mechanism.
