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

backgroundIn allergic patients, clinical symptoms caused by pollen remind of symptoms triggered by viral respiratory infections, which are also the main cause of asthmatic exacerbations. In patients sensitized to birch pollen, Bet v 1 is the major symptom-causing allergen. Immune mechanisms driving Bet v 1-related responses of human blood cells have not been fully characterized.

objectiveTo characterize the immune response to Bet v 1 in peripheral blood in patients allergic to birch pollen.

methodsThe peripheral blood mononuclear cells of birch-allergic (n = 24) and non-allergic (n = 47) adolescents were stimulated ex-vivo followed by transcriptomic profiling. Systems-biology approaches were employed to decipher disease-relevant gene networks and deconvolution of associated cell populations.

resultsSolely in birch-allergic patients, co-expression analysis revealed activation of networks of innate immunity and antiviral signalling as the immediate response to Bet v 1 stimulation. Toll-like receptors and signal transducer transcription were the main drivers of gene expression patterns. Macrophages and dendritic cells were the main cell subsets responding to Bet v 1. CONCLUSIONS AND CLINICAL RELEVANCE: In birch-pollen-allergic patients, the activated innate immune networks seem to be, in part, the same as those activated during viral infections. This tendency of the immune system to read pollens as viruses may provide new insight to allergy prevention and treatment.
