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

BACKGROUND AND

aimsThe mechanism of dysfunction of regulatory B cells is unclear. The circadian locomotor output cycles kaput (CLK) regulates immune responses. CLK expression can be increased by alteration of the circadian rhythm. This study tests a hypothesis that alteration of the circadian rhythm, such as engaging the day-night shift rotation (DNSR), interferes with the expression of transforming growth factor (TGF)-β in B cells (TGFbB cell).

methodsPeripheral blood samples were collected from DNSR nurses and persons with the regular circadian clock life style (RC). The frequency of TGFbB cells in the blood samples was assessed by flow cytometry. The expression of TGF-beta in B cells was assessed with real time RT-PCR.

resultsWe observed that the frequency of peripheral TGFbB cells was less in DNSR nurses as compared to RC subjects. The expression of CLK and histone deacetylase 11 in peripheral B cells was higher, the TGF-β expression was lower, in peripheral B cells of DNSR nurses. Over-expression of CLK repressed the expression of TGF-β in B cells, which was mediated by HDAC11.

conclusionsThe CLK expression in peripheral B cells is higher in DNSR nurses, which suppresses the expression of TGF-β in B cells. To regulate the expression of CLK during the circadian clock alteration needs to be further investigated.
