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 mechanism(s) underlying endotoxin tolerance in asthma remain elusive. As the endotoxin lipopolysaccharide (LPS) affects the expression of the regulatory T-cell (Treg)-suppressive glucocorticoid-induced tumor necrosis factor receptor ligand (GITRL) on antigen-presenting dendritic cells (DCs), we hypothesized that LPS-induced changes in DC GITRL expression may impact Treg-mediated T-helper (Th) cell suppression and the induction of endotoxin tolerance. Here, we propose a novel mechanism by which low-dose LPS inhalation in neonatal mice induces endotoxin tolerance, thereby offering protection from later asthma development. Three-day old wild-type and Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4)-deficient neonatal mice were exposed to low-dose LPS (1 μg) intranasally for 10 consecutive days prior to ovalbumin (OVA)-induced asthma to better understand the tolerogenic mechanism(s) of low-dose LPS pre-exposure.
