Effects of in-house and commercial extracts of the allergenic mite Tyrophagus putrescentiae on murine and human cell responses.
Article in Experimental & applied acarology, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Mites are among the major sources of domestic and occupational allergens worldwide, and continuous exposure to these allergens leads to chronic airway inflammation. One of the most allergenic species is the storage mite Tyrophagus putrescentiae (Schrank). Protein extracts are produced from this mite for tests that help the clinical diagnosis (via prick test), treatment, and monitoring of disease progression in patients who had positive results for allergic reactions. Therefore, the aim of the present study was to evaluate the cell viability of RAW 264.7 and L929 cells when exposed to in-house raw protein extracts of T. putrescentiae compared to a commercial product, as well as quantify TNF-α secretion by RAW 264.7. Additionally, this study quantified the effect of these extracts in IgE secretion in total blood of people affected by this mite. The study found similarity between the in-house extract and the commercial extract as they had equivalent TNF-α secretion. Additionally, viabilities of RAW 264.7 and L929 exposed to the in-house extract were compatible with viabilities of cells exposed to the commercial extract, with no cytotoxicity at the concentrations tested. Results corroborated the hypothesis that the extract produced in-house would be equivalent to the commercial extract in allergic patients when the IgE was quantified. This study is the first to show the cytotoxicity of T. putrescentiae extracts, and to provide a quantitative analysis of TNF-α and IgE.
