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

aimTo investigate how macrophage inducible C-type lectin (Mincle) influences inflammation in mice fungal keratitis induced by

methodsC57BL/6 mice were infected with

resultsMincle mRNA and protein levels were higher in infected corneas than normal corneas of C57BL/6 mice, saving clinical scores revealed differences. When pretreated with Mincle agonist TDB, the mRNA and protein levels of IL-1β, TNF-α and IL-6 in infected corneas were significantly increased compared with the control group (

conclusionMincle plays a dual role in mice fungal keratitis. It participates in the innate immune system by enhancing inflammation. What's more, Mincle can mediate cytotoxic effects by regulating the formation of NO.
