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) induces a strong local infiltration of regulatory T-cells (Tregs) in the lungs. However, at present, there remains a lack of adequate evidence showing the direct effect of Tregs on pulmonary repair and the related mechanisms of ARDS. Therefore, in this project, we studied the impact of Tregs on lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced ARDS and pulmonary inflammation. Surprisingly, we found that depletion of Tregs by injection of PC61 anti-CD25 antibody not only interfered with the inflammation resolution, such as inhibited total cell infiltration into the alveolar space, downregulated neutrophils, upregulated macrophages, but also impaired pulmonary epithelium and endothelial cell proliferation. Consistent with the attenuation of pulmonary repair, we found that the Th1 and Th17 immune responses were also impaired in Treg-depleted mice, suggesting that the presence of Tregs is vital for tissue repair, as Tregs modulate and promote the Th immune response in LPS-induced pulmonary inflammation.
