Modeling the Bistable Dynamics of the Innate Immune System.
Article in Bulletin of mathematical biology, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
The size of primary challenge with lipopolysaccharide induces changes in the innate immune cells phenotype between pro-inflammatory and pro-tolerant states when facing a secondary lipopolysaccharide challenge. To determine the molecular mechanisms governing this differential response, we propose a mathematical model for the interaction between three proteins involved in the immune cell decision making: IRAK-1, PI3K, and RelB. The mutual inhibition of IRAK-1 and PI3K in the model leads to bistable dynamics. By using the levels of RelB as indicative of strength of the immune responses, we connect the size of different primary lipopolysaccharide doses to the differential phenotypical outcomes following a secondary challenge. We further predict under what circumstances the primary LPS dose does not influence the response to a secondary challenge. Our results can be used to guide treatments for patients with either autoimmune disease or compromised immune system.
