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

The formyl peptide receptor 2 (FPR2) belongs to the family of seven-transmembrane G protein-coupled receptors (GPCR) and are expressed by many different cells but mainly studied in immune cells. FPR2 is involved in host defense against bacterial infections and clearance of damaged cells through the oxidative burst and chemotaxis of neutrophils. In addition, FPR2 has also been implicated as an immunomodulator in sterile inflammations, e.g. inflammatory joint diseases. Here we present data regarding FPR2 expression in human articular chondrocytes, isolated from healthy individuals and osteoarthritic patients, on both mRNA and protein level using qPCR and Imagestream flow cytometry. We also present data after receptor stimulation and monitoring of production of nitric oxide, reactive oxygen species, IL-6, IL-8 and MMP-3. The presented data show that human articular chondrocytes from patients with osteoarthritis as well as from healthy individuals express FPR2 both at mRNA and protein level. The biological relevance of FPR2 expression in chondrocytes needs to be further investigated.
