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

CCX-CKR (CCRL1) as one of the chemokine receptor-like proteins is a scavenger of CCL19, CCL21, CCL25, and CXCL13 chemokines. Human CCX-CKR is expressed in various tissues. Since HEK 293 cells are used for both transient and stable expression of CCX-CKR gene, it is important to determine endogenous expression of CCX-CKR gene. Therefore, in the current study endogenous expression of CCX-CKR gene was evaluated in HEK 293 cells. To test the expression of CCX-CKR gene in HEK 293 cells, total RNA was isolated from HEK 293 cells and RT-PCR reaction was primed with the gene-specific primers. Protein expression is then evaluated by Western blot analysis and flow cytometry. Results of this study show that HEK 293 cells express an endogenous CCRL1 gene only at mRNA level. These data therefore represent the important implications for the use of HEK 293 cells as a host cell system for the study of CCX-CKR.
