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

IFNs, which transduce pivotal signals through Stat1 and Stat2, effectively suppress the replication of Legionella pneumophila in primary murine macrophages. Although the ability of IFN-γ to impede L. pneumophila growth is fully dependent on Stat1, IFN-αβ unexpectedly suppresses L. pneumophila growth in both Stat1- and Stat2-deficient macrophages. New studies demonstrating that the robust response to IFN-αβ is lost in Stat1-Stat2 double-knockout macrophages suggest that Stat1 and Stat2 are functionally redundant in their ability to direct an innate response toward L. pneumophila. Because the ability of IFN-αβ to signal through Stat1-dependent complexes (i.e., Stat1-Stat1 and Stat1-Stat2 dimers) has been well characterized, the current studies focus on how Stat2 is able to direct a potent response to IFN-αβ in the absence of Stat1. These studies reveal that IFN-αβ is able to drive the formation of a Stat2 and IFN regulatory factor 9 complex that drives the expression of a subset of IFN-stimulated genes, but with substantially delayed kinetics. These observations raise the possibility that this pathway evolved in response to microbes that have devised strategies to subvert Stat1-dependent responses.
