Increased frequencies of nuocytes in peripheral blood from patients with Graves' hyperthyroidism.

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
Newly identified nuocytes play an important role in Th2 cell mediated immunity such as protective immune responses to helminth parasites, allergic asthma and chronic rhinosinusitis. However, the contributions of nuocytes in the occurrence and development of Graves' hyperthyroidism remains unknown. Previous studies found that there was a predominant Th2 phenotype in patients with Graves' hyperthyroidism, it might relate to polarization of nuocytes. Nuocytes were defined by transcription factor RORα, various cell surface markers (T1/ST2, IL-17RB, ICOS, CD45) and associated cytokines. In this study, these cells related genes or molecules in PBMC from patients with Graves' hyperthyroidism were measured, and the potential correlation between them was analyzed. The expression levels of T1/ST2, IL-17RB, ICOS, IL-5 and IL-13, which represented nuocytes associated molecules were significantly increased in patients, meanwhile, the RORα mRNA also had a tendency to increase. In addition, IFN-γ and T-bet (Th1 related cytokine and transcription factor) were obviously decreased, and there was a positive correlation between IL-17RB and IL-13. These results suggested that there were polarized nuocytes in Graves' hyperthyroidism patients, and which closely related to the down-regulation of Th1 cells or relatively advantage of Th2 differentiation.
