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

objectiveThe aim of this study was to estimate relations between sputum neutrophilia and the chemotactic activity of peripheral blood neutrophils after the bronchial allergen challenge in asthma patients. MATERIALS AND

methodsFifteen patients with allergic asthma (AA), 13 patients with allergic rhinitis (AR), all sensitized to Dermatophagoides pteronyssinus, and 8 healthy subjects (HS) underwent bronchial challenge with D. pteronyssinus. Sputum and peripheral blood collection were performed 24 h before, 7 and 24 h after the bronchial challenge. Cell counts were determined by the May-Grünwald-Giemsa method. Neutrophil chemotaxis was analyzed by a flow cytometer; IL-8 levels were measured by ELISA.

resultsSputum neutrophil count and peripheral blood neutrophil chemotaxis of patients with AA were greater 7 and 24 h after the challenge compared with the baseline values and patients with AR and HS (P < 0.05). Moreover, a significant correlation was found between the neutrophil count in sputum and IL-8 levels, and the chemotactic activity of peripheral blood neutrophils 24 h after the bronchial challenge only the patients with AA (P < 0.05).

conclusionsIncreased sputum neutrophil count was found to be associated with an enhanced chemotactic activity of peripheral blood neutrophils during allergen-induced late-phase airway inflammation in patients with allergic asthma.
