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

Studies in recent years have strengthened the notion that neural mechanisms are involved in the control of immune responses. From initial studies that highlighted the vagus nerve control of inflammatory responses in vertebrates, many advances have been made, including the dissection of specific neural circuits that are involved in controlling immunity. Part of this has been facilitated by the use of a tractable model animal, Caenorhabditis elegans, in which individual neurons involved in sensing pathogens and controlling the immune response have been identified. Importantly, some of the underlying mechanisms involved in the neural control of immune pathways appear to be present in evolutionarily diverse species. This review focuses on some major developments in vertebrates and C. elegans, and how these discoveries may lead to advances in understanding neural-immune connections that govern inflammatory responses.
