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

Caspase recruitment domain-containing protein 9 (CARD9) is an adaptor molecule that is critical for NF-κB activation and forms a complex with B cell lymphoma 10 and mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue lymphoma translocation gene 1 that mediates C-type lectin receptors (CLRs)-triggered intracellular signaling during antifungal immunity. However, the role of CARD9 in the host defense against Phialophora verrucosa (P. verrucosa) infection remains to be elucidated. In the present study, we investigated the functions of polymorphonuclear neutrophils (PMNs) from patients with CARD9 deficiencies against P. verrucosa. By isolating PMNs from patients and healthy blood donors and subsequently challenging the cells with P. verrucosa, we demonstrated that, compared with healthy donors, CARD9-deficient PMNs exhibited defects in P. verrucosa killing and pro-inflammatory cytokine productions, which can be rescued in the presence of serum; however, the CARD9-deficient PMNs exhibited normal reactive oxygen species generation and phagocytotic ability. In conclusion, our results indicate that CARD9 is indispensable for P. verrucosa killing by PMNs, and serum opsonization acts as a CARD9-independent way, which could be a promising immunotherapy in the future.
