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

Ultrastructural study of mucosal eosinophils in a case of eosinophilic gastroenteritis involving stomach, duodenum and ileum showed an altered structure in ulcerated duodenal areas. The electron core density of eosinophil granules was inverted or disappeared and tubulovesicular structures occurred. Using immunogold staining with specific antibodies, major basic protein was detected diffusely in the matrix of eosinophil granules and out of the granules in tight association with extragranular membrane formations. In contrast, eosinophil cationic protein and eosinophil peroxidase were normally distributed in the granule matrix. When compared with the eosinophils in macroscopically normal duodenal mucosa in the same patient, these changes support a role for major basic protein in tissue damage in eosinophilic gastroenteritis. The diffusion of one granule protein from the granules to the exterior of the cells favours the view of a selective release of eosinophil mediators.
