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

Neutralization of pathogens by phagocytic immune cells requires the biogenesis of a compartmentalized hotspot of reactive species called the phagosome. One of these reactive species is hypochlorous acid (HOCl), produced by the enzyme myeloperoxidase (MPO) after the phagosome fuses with the lysosome. Mapping HOCl during phagosome maturation can report on pathogen killing and offer insights into regulation of MPO activity, mechanisms of resistance and host-pathogen interactions. However, this has been difficult because of a lack of a suitable method to chemically map a transient organelle with pH fluctuations like the phagosome. Here, we detail a protocol for quantifying HOCl dynamics in phagosomes using a fluorescent DNA-based reporter. Compared to traditional methods of visualizing HOCl or measuring MPO activity, this method offers sub-cellular spatial resolution and the capacity to assay HOCl production with single cell resolution.
