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

IL-27 is a pleiotropic cytokine capable of influencing both innate and adaptive immune responses. With anti- and pro-inflammatory activity, IL-27 exerts its opposing effects in a cell-dependent and infectious context-specific manner. Upon pathogenic stimuli, IL-27 regulates innate immune cells, such as monocytes, dendritic cells, macrophages and neutrophils. Immune responses involving these innate cells that are negatively regulated by IL-27 signaling include inflammatory cytokine production, phagolysosomal acidification following phagocytosis, oxidative burst and autophagy. IL-27 signaling is crucial in maintaining the subtle balance between Th1 and Th2 immunity, in which protective inflammation is upregulated within the early stages of infection and subsequently downregulated once microbial growth is controlled. The immunomodulatory effects of IL-27 provide promising therapeutic targets for multiple disease types.
