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

Neutrophils are considered as complex innate immune cells and play a critical role in maintaining intestinal mucosal homeostasis. They exert robust pro-inflammatory effects and recruit other immune cells in the acute phase of pathogen infection and intestinal inflammation, but paradoxically, they also limit exogenous microbial invasion and facilitate mucosal restoration. Hyperactivation or dysfunction of neutrophils results in abnormal immune responses, leading to multiple autoimmune and inflammatory diseases including systemic lupus erythematosus, rheumatoid arthritis, and inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD). As a refractory intestinal inflammatory disease, the pathogenesis and progression of IBD are associated with complicated immune response processes in which neutrophils are profoundly involved. However, the consensus on potential roles of neutrophils in modulating pathogenic and repair processes of IBD remains not fully understood. Accumulated infiltrating neutrophils cross the epithelial barrier and contribute to microbial dysbiosis, aggravated intestinal architectural damage, compromised resolution of intestinal inflammation and increased risk of thrombosis during IBD. Paradoxically, activated neutrophils are also associated with effective elimination of invaded microbiota, promoted angiogenesis and tissue restoration of gut mucosa in IBD. Here, we discuss the beneficial and detrimental roles of neutrophils in the onset and resolution of intestinal mucosal inflammation, hoping to provide a precise overview of neutrophil functions in the pathogenesis of IBD.
