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

Cyclophilin A has multiple known functions in inflammation. Intracellular cyclophilin A modulates T helper 2 response (Th2) and extracellular cyclophilin A functions as a leukocyte chemotactic factor. The contribution of cyclophilin A to central nervous system (CNS) inflammation has not been reported. To test the hypothesis that inhibition of cyclophilin A would ameliorate immune-mediated CNS inflammation, we compared the course and neuroimmunology of experimental allergic encephalomyelitis (EAE) in cyclophilin A knockout mice and wild type littermates. There was a trend towards lower incidence of EAE in cyclophilin A knockout mice, but the clinical course of EAE among animals that manifested clinical signs of EAE was similar in cyclophilin A knockout and wild type littermates. Antigen recall response to myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein (MOG) peptide showed that interferon-γ release was lower in cyclophilin A knockout mice. Analysis of CNS inflammatory cells showed that CD3+ T cell infiltration into the CNS was lower in cyclophilin A knockout mice. These results showed that the loss of cyclophilin A results in altered peripheral immune activation and CNS leukocyte infiltration, but these changes did not result in a substantial change in the clinical course of EAE.
