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

GATA3 and T-box (T-bet) expressed in T-cells are transcriptional factors that play a critical role in development of Th2 and Th1 immunity respectively. GATA3 is expressed during Th2 differentiation and T-bet is expressed exclusively in Th1 cells. Thus, a balance between GATA3 and T-bet is believed to control Th2/Th1 polarization. Therefore, the high expression of T-bet and low expression of GATA3 indicate the existence of Th1 polarization in children with acute immune thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP). This might be related to the regulation of T-bet and GATA3. The objective of this work was to study the expression of transcriptional factors T-bet and GATA3 m RNA in children with idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura and correlate it with clinical findings, laboratory findings, and outcome of patients. In this study the expression of T-bet and GATA3 genes was analysed in 20 normal healthy individuals and 40 children with ITP (20 acute and 20 persistent) using reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction to investigate a possible relation, association or correlation with the type of ITP and prognosis. T-bet was expressed significantly in 60 % of acute ITP children (12/20) (
