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

backgroundMigration, production of reactive oxygen species (ROS), release of myeloperoxidase (MPO), and NETosis are functional immunological reactions of elementary importance for polymorphonuclear neutrophils (PMN). Unregulated inflammatory response of PMN within tissues plays a key role in the pathophysiology of several diseases. However, little is known about the behavior of PMN after migration through blood vessel walls. Therefore, we investigated the influence of the extracellular matrix (ECM) on PMN function. MATERIALS AND

methodsWe established an in vitro chemotaxis model of type I and III collagen, fibrin, and herbal agarose tissues using µ-slide chemotaxis devices and N-formylmethionine-leucyl-phenylalanine (fMLP). PMN within the matrices were assessed with a fluorescent time-lapse microscope for live-cell imaging.

resultsPMN function was obviously influenced by the ECM. Type III collagen had an inhibitory effect on PMN migration regarding track length, direction, and targeting. Type III collagen also had an accelerating effect on neutrophil ROS production. Agarose had an inhibitory effect on MPO release and fibrin a retarding effect on NETosis.

conclusionBecause of the high abundance of type III collagen in lung and skin matrices, the interaction of PMN with the respective matrix could be an important mechanism in the pathophysiology of acute respiratory distress syndrome and pyoderma gangrenosum.
