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

Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is a life-threatening critical care syndrome with uncontrolled inflammation that is a central issue. Its main characteristic is inflammatory mediators and cytokines as well as agglutinating chemokines that injure target cells. Interleukin (IL)-35 is a newly identified IL-12 cytokine family member with structural similarities to other IL-12, IL-23, and IL-27 cytokines but unique immunological functions. How IL-35 functions in ARDS is unclear. The purpose of our study was to determine what role IL-35 played in the development of ARDS. Here we found serum IL-35 concentrations were significantly elevated in patients with ARDS relative to healthy people. Moreover, we established a mouse model of lipopolysaccharide- and cecal ligation and puncture-induced ARDS treated with neutralizing antibodies (anti-IL-35 Ebi3 or anti-IL-35 P35); the results showed that lung injury occurred more often than in untreated models and the inflammatory cytokines CXCL-1, tumor necrosis factor alpha, IL-6, and IL-17A increased significantly after neutralizing antibody treatment in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid and serum. Therefore IL-35 can protect against the development of ARDS. Even more interesting in our study was that we discovered IL-35 expression differed between lung and spleen across different ARDS models, which further demonstrated that the spleen likely has an important role in extrapulmonary ARDS model only, improving the ratio of CD4
