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

backgroundIntravenous immunoglobulin (IVIg) treatment partially replaces antibody defects and modulates innate and adaptive immune cells in patients with primary antibody deficiencies. MATERIALS AND

methodsThis study was focused on the evaluation of the effects of in vivo IVIg administration on neutrophils from patients with common variable immune disorders (CVID). We examined polymorphonuclear neutrophil (PMN) phagocytosis, PMN oxidative burst, release of neutrophil elastase, serum level of interleukin-8 and PMN expression of CXCR1, CD11c and CD66b.

resultsCVID patients on chronic IVIg treatment had reduced elastase release, but normal expression of CXCR1, CD66b and CD11c receptors on PMN, normal phagocytic ability and normal secretion of interleukin-8. We found that IVIg infusions rapidly reduced the serum level of interleukin-8, the expression of its receptor, CXCR1, and the release of neutrophil elastase, suggesting that IVIg exert a dampening effect on neutrophil activity. In contrast, IVIg infusions did not alter neutrophil phagocytosis or the expression of the other receptors analysed. DISCUSSION: These findings add further information regarding the anti-inflammatory role of immunoglobulins and suggest additional benefits in keeping with recent attempts to use new therapies targeting neutrophil inflammation.
