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

Cystic fibrosis (CF), one of the most common genetic disorders, is caused by mutations in the CF transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene. In spite of significant improvement in patient life expectancy, the disease remains lethal and incurable. Clinically, CF lung disease claims the most morbidity and mortality, characterized by chronic bacterial infection, persistent neutrophilic inflammation, and purulent small airway obstruction. Although all these manifestations are highly associated with neutrophils, the actual role of this phagocyte in the disease pathogenesis has not been fully appreciated. One of the major obstacles impeding such progress is the lack of CF neutrophil cell lines. Taking advantage of the new CRISPR/Cas9 gene-editing technology, we have generated a homozygous ΔF508-CF promyelocytic cell line from HL-60 cells, from which unlimited CF neutrophil cells can be differentiated. The derived cells showed defective CFTR presentation, deficient phagosomal hypochlorous acid (HOCl) production, and compromised microbial killing. Such a phenotype recapitulates that of primary neutrophils from CF patients. Thus, the established human CF promyelocytic cell line should be a useful tool for future CF basic research and drug screening.
