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

Eosinophils have been reported to modulate T cell responses. Previously, we reported that high-mobility group box 1 protein (HMGB1) played a key role in the pathogenesis of asthma. This study was conducted to test our hypothesis that eosinophils could modulate T cell responses via HMGB1 in the pathogenesis of asthma characterized by eosinophilic airway inflammation. We performed in vitro experiments using eosinophils, dendritic cells (DCs), and CD4(+) T cells obtained from a murine model of asthma. The supernatant of the eosinophil culture was found to significantly increase the levels of interleukin (IL)-4 and IL-5 in the supernatant of CD4(+) T cells co-cultured with DCs. HMGB1 levels increased in the supernatant of the eosinophil culture stimulated with IL-5. Anti-HMGB1 antibodies significantly attenuated increases of IL-4 and IL-5 levels in the supernatant of CD4(+) T cells co-cultured with DCs that were induced by the supernatant of the eosinophil culture. In addition, anti-HMGB1 antibodies significantly attenuated the expressions of activation markers (CD44 and CD69) on CD4(+) T cells. Our data suggest that eosinophils modulate CD4(+) T cell responses via HMGB1 in the pathogenesis of asthma.
