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

objectiveTo detect the expressions of vitamin D receptor (VDR) in peripheral blood monocytes (PBMCs) and its association with monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1) in patients with systemic lupus erythemaotsus (SLE).

methodsWe examined the expressions of VDR and MCP-1 mRNAs in the PBMCs in 60 SLE patients and 28 healthy individuals using real- time quantitative PCR. We also detected the expression of VDR protein in the PBMCs using Western blotting and peripheral blood MCP-1 level using ELISA for these participants. The correlation of VDR and MCP-1 expressions with the disease activity index of SLE (SLEDAI) of the patients were analyzed.

resultsThe expressions of VDR mRNA and protein in the PBMCs were significantly lower in patients with SLE than in the healthy individuals (

conclusionsThe down-regulation of VDR expression in the PBMC is negatively correlated with the disease activity of SLE. VDR may play an important role in the pathogenesis of SLE by affecting the expression of MCP-1.
