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

N-3-(Oxododecanoyl)-L-homoserine lactone (C12) is a small bacterial signaling molecule secreted by Pseudomonas aeruginosa (PA), which activates mammalian cells through TLR4-independent mechanisms. C12 acts as an immunosuppressant and it has been shown to modulate murine bone marrow-derived dendritic cell-mediated T-helper 2 (Th2) cell polarizations in vitro. In the present study, we initially examined the impact of C12 on the maturation of human monocyte-derived dendritic cells (Mo-DCs) and the induction of regulatory T-cells (iTregs) in culture. Our findings demonstrate that C12-treated Mo-DCs failed to undergo lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced maturation. At the molecular level, C12 blocked the upregulation of surface molecules, including CD11c, HLA-DR, CD40, and CD80, and it switched to an interleukin (IL)-10(high), IL-12p70(low) phenotype. Moreover, C12 selectively inhibited the capacity of Mo-DCs to stimulate the proliferation of allogeneic CD4(+) T-cells. Otherwise, the C12-treated Mo-DCs promoted the generation of CD4(+)CD25(+)Foxp3(+)-induced regulatory T-cells (iTregs) and enhanced their IL-10 and transforming growth factor (TGF)-β production associated with reduced interferon (IFN)-γ and IL-12p70 production. These findings provide new insights towards understanding the persistence of chronic inflammation in PA infection.
