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

The soluble cytoplasmic tail of the prototypic receptor-like protein tyrosine phosphatase (PTP) CD45 (ct-CD45) is cleaved and released into the human plasma by activated phagocytes. Released ct-CD45 was found to inhibit T cell proliferation and cytokine production via engagement of Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4). In this study, we analyzed the impact of the ct-CD45/TLR4 pathway on the function of human monocyte-derived dendritic cells (DCs). We could demonstrate that activation of DCs by ct-CD45 upregulated the expression of certain cell surface markers (e.g., CD71 and CD86) and induced IL-10 production via TLR4. Yet, in contrast to stimulation with LPS, other typical cell surface markers and cytokines were not upregulated or induced in DCs by ct-CD45. The T cell proliferation-stimulatory capacity of DCs was not modulated by ct-CD45 treatment. However, treatment of DCs with ct-CD45 modulated the cytokine profile in co-cultured T cells. While IFN-γ production induced by DCs was strongly inhibited, the release of IL-4 was increased in T cells upon stimulation with ct-CD45-treated DCs. In contrast, ct-CD45-stimulated DCs induced IL-2 and IL-10 production in co-cultured T cells comparable to untreated DCs. In summary, we could demonstrate that ct-CD45 acts as an immunoregulatory factor for DCs via a non-canonical TLR4-dependent activation pathway.
