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

Neutrophils are short-lived, abundant peripheral blood leukocytes that provide a first line of defense against bacterial and fungal infections while also being a key part of the inflammatory response. Chemokines induce neutrophil recruitment to inflammatory sites, where neutrophils perform several diverse functions that are aimed at fighting infections. Neutrophil effector functions are tightly regulated processes that are governed by an array of intracellular signaling pathways and initiated by receptor-ligand binding events. Dysregulated neutrophil activation can result in excessive inflammation and host damage, as is evident in several autoimmune diseases. Rho family small GTPases and agonist-activated phosphoinositide 3-kinases (PI3Ks) represent 2 classes of key regulators of the highly specialized neutrophil. Here we review cross-talk between these important signaling intermediates in the context of neutrophil functions. We include PI3K-dependent activation of Rho family small GTPases and of their guanine nucleotide exchange factors and GTPase activating proteins, as well as Rho GTPase-dependent regulation of PI3K.
