Basic inflammatory indices and chosen neutrophil receptors expression in chronic haemodialysed patients.
Article in Central-European journal of immunology, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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.
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
aim of the studyEnd stage renal disease (ESRD) patients on chronic haemodialysis (HD) are immuno-compromised and prone to infection. Toll-like receptors (TLRs) play a role as both primary sensors of pathogen invasion and activators of inflammatory reaction. To test if the immune impairment in HD patients is connected with the defective expression of the neutrophil TLRs, we aimed to examine their expression and chosen inflammatory indices. MATERIAL AND
methodsWe tested CD14, TLR4, and TLR9 expressions on neutrophils using flow cytometry. Soluble CD14, C-reactive protein (CRP), and mannose-binding lectin (MBL) concentrations were tested using the ELISA method in 31 ESRD patients on chronic haemodialysis programs and in 17 healthy control subjects.
resultsNeutrophil TLR4 and TLR9 expressions did not differ significantly compared to the controls. The ESRD patients had markedly increased CRP and sCD14 levels alongside decreased MBL concentrations and neutrophil CD14 expression. The TLR4 expression correlated well with both TLR9 and CD14 neutrophil expressions; however, the increased CRP in the blood did not correlate with the MBL concentration or TLR expression.
conclusionsThe chronic program of haemodialysis and biochemical disorders in ESRD patients result in a low-grade chronic inflammation with no significant impact on the expression of neutrophil TLR4 and TLR9.
