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

backgroundThrombin could elicit degranulation of mast cells involved in numerous physiologic and pathologic processes; however, the detailed scrutiny of this procedure and further research of possible cell signaling pathways are lacking.

methodsP815 mouse mast cells were exposed to various concentrations of thrombin for 16 h. Expression of protease-activated receptor (PAR)1, PAR2, PAR3, and PAR4 mRNA in P815 was analyzed by quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR) and the fittest concentration of thrombin was decided. Then, secretions of mediators from P815 stimulated by thrombin 0.2 U/ml were determined using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and Luminex liquichip; the possible cell signaling pathways were measured by immunoblotting. Furthermore, inhibition of thrombin inhibitor (hirudin), PAR1 inhibitor (SCH79797), and MAPK inhibitors (SB203580, PD98059, and SP600125) on the mediator section was evaluated by ELISA and Luminex liquichip.

resultsThrombin 0.2 U/ml induced the elevated expression of PAR1, PAR2, PAR3, and PAR4, as well as the increasing level of phospho-I

conclusionWe found the expression of PAR mRNA in P815, activation of signaling pathways of nuclear factor-kappaB (NF-
