Histamine-Releasing Factor Is a Novel Alarmin Induced by House Dust Mite Allergen, Cytokines, and Cell Death.
Article in Journal of immunology (Baltimore, Md. : 1950), 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 papers.
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.
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
Histamine-releasing factor (HRF) is a multifunctional protein with fundamental intracellular functions controlling cell survival and proliferation. HRF is also secreted during allergic reactions and promotes IgE-mediated activation of mast cells and basophils. In this study, we investigated HRF secretion and its relevance to airway inflammation. HRF monomers were constitutively secreted from BEAS-2B human bronchial epithelial cells (HBECs) and converted to oligomers over the course of culture. Stimulation with house dust mite (HDM) extract increased HRF secretion substantially. Several cytokines involved in asthma pathogenesis showed moderate effects on HRF secretion but dramatically enhanced HDM-induced HRF secretion. HDM-induced HRF secretion from BEAS-2B cells and normal HBECs proceeded via TLR2. Consistent with this, multiple TLR2 ligands, including Der p 2, Der p 5, Der p 13, and Der p 21, induced HRF secretion. Der p 10 (tropomyosin) also promoted HRF secretion. Cell death or incubation with adenosine and ATP, compounds released upon cell death, also enhanced HRF secretion. Furthermore, intranasal administration of recombinant HRF elicited robust airway inflammation in HDM-sensitized mice in an FcεRI-dependent manner. Therefore, we conclude that HRF is a novel alarmin that promotes allergic airway inflammation.
