Profiling of heat shock proteins 27 and 70 in adenoids of children.
Article in European archives of oto-rhino-laryngology : official journal of the European Federation of Oto-Rhino-Laryngological Societies (EUFOS) : affiliated with the German Society for Oto-Rhino-Laryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
purposeHeat shock protein (HSP)27 and 70 are molecular chaperones that may have immunomodulatory functions. We determined if and at what levels each are expressed in the adenoids of pediatric subjects. We also examined tissue distributions, associated clinical characteristics, and antibacterial effects.
methodsWestern blot, enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), and immunohistochemistry were applied to adenoidal tissues and lavage fluids obtained from children (N = 40) undergoing adenotonsillectomy.
resultsVia western blot and ELISA, both HSP27 and 70 were regularly detected in adenoidal tissue and in lavage fluid samples. HSP27 was highly expressed in epithelium, whereas HSP70 showed strong subepithelial positivity and bore a significant relation to adenoidal size. Assayed levels of HSP27 and 70 correlated inversely, and their addition to culture media independently increased bacterial numbers (Staphylococcus aureus). Upon the precipitation of each from adenoidal lavage fluids, bacterial counts declined.
conclusionsHSP27 and 70 are readily expressed in the adenoids of children and may be implicated in immunologic responses.
