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

Background: Bullous pemphigoid (BP) and atopic dermatitis (AD) are both type 2 inflammatory skin diseases with similar clinical features. Thymic stromal lymphopoietin (TSLP) is an epithelial-derived cytokine which is upregulated in AD. However, the expression of TSLP in BP and the correlation between TSLP and inflammatory infiltrations have not been fully studied. Objective: To characterize the serum Th2 cytokines level and Th2 inflammatory cell infiltrations in BP and AD. To study TSLP levels in serum, blister fluids and expression in lesional skin in patients with BP and AD. Methods: TSLP level in serum and blister fluids was measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Inflammatory cells (CD4+ T cells, CD8+ T cells, CD1a+ cells, eosinophils and mast cells) were stained immunohistochemically and quantified by image analysis. Results: TSLP level was significantly increased in blister fluids of BP and was highly expressed in lesional skin of BP and AD. Serum levels of IL-6, IL-4, IL-22, IFN-γ and thymic activation regulates chemokines (TARC) were significantly higher in patients with BP and AD than in healthy controls. CD4+ T cells, CD8+ T cells and CD1a+ cells were significantly more in upper dermis of BP and AD lesions. Eosinophils were found more in BP lesions while mast cells were found more in AD lesions than in healthy controls. A distinct correlation was found between TSLP levels and the intensities of CD4+ T cells, CD1a+ cells infiltrations. Conclusion: TSLP was significantly higher in blister fluids and skin lesions of BP, suggesting that it might contribute to the pathogenesis of BP. BP exhibited a similar type 2 immune response and a slight difference in cells infiltrations with AD.
