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.
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
purposeThe ubiquitous calcium-independent phospholipase A2 enzyme (iPLA2) is inhibited by calmodulin binding and known to be responsible for phospholipid remodeling housekeeping functions including granule exocytosis-associated membrane fusion in normal human neutrophils. We evaluate in human neutrophils the iPLA2 secretagogue effects using normal neutrophils, where reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation has been blocked by diphenyleneiodonium, as well as in neutrophils from chronic granulomatous disease (CGD) patients.
methodsNeutrophils were pretreated with W7, a calmodulin inhibitor known to activate iPLA2 and exocytosis of granules, and vesicles as well as intra- and extra-microbicidal activity against Staphylococcus aureus and Aspergillus fumigatus were evaluated.
resultsW7 increases exocytosis of primary, secondary, and tertiary granules and vesicles and improves neutrophil microbicidal activity against S. aureus and A. fumigatus.
conclusionsIn neutrophils, calmodulin-mediated iPLA2 inhibition controls granule and vesicle exocytosis in the phagosome and in the extracellular microenvironment. Relieving iPLA2 inhibition results in increased exocytosis of primary, secondary, and tertiary granules and secretory vesicles with correction of defective intracellular and extracellular microbicidal activity. In CGD patients presenting ROS defective production, this increase in the non-oxidative killing pathway partially corrects their microbicidal defects.
