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

backgroundThe mechanisms by which genetic and environmental factors interact to promote asthma remain unclear. Both the IL-4 receptor alpha chain R576 (IL-4RαR576) variant and Notch4 license asthmatic lung inflammation by allergens and ambient pollutant particles by subverting lung regulatory T (T

objectiveWe examined the interaction between IL-4RαR576 and Notch4 in promoting asthmatic inflammation.

methodsPeripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) of asthmatics were analyzed for T helper type 2 cytokine production and Notch4 expression on T

resultsAsthmatics carrying the IL4R

conclusionThese results identify an IL-4RαR576-regulated GRB2-IL-6-Notch4 circuit that promotes asthma severity by subverting lung T
